@Tapirlord would love your input on this. It's not quite right for L gelidus, but I can't find anything it fits. Drooping habit, flowers in clusters of 6-8 on short stalks, 5 attached petals with quite a lot of hairs so definitely Styphelidae. Dry forest, but in a semi-permanent creek line. Acrothamnus sp was suggested on iNat but I can't find any which have that drooping habit.
Leucopogon gelidus

@Csteele4 it might just be a matter of waiting until the name change is accepted and/or the various online databases get updated which could take a few years.

Hi @Hejor1. This might be the pupal case of a leaf beetle. See for example sighting 4411148. The round hole would probably have been made by an exiting parasitic wasp. The beetles usually neatly remove the top of the case. See sighting 4496734.
