Australian bug.
I got it to a probable Amorbus genus but just can't find specific species.
Looks like an Eucalyptus Tip Bug.
Found this pic which is so close but 1 photo does not make a match.
Eucalyptus Tip Bug, Amorbus alternatus Nymph

To me, it looks more like Amorbus alternatus than any of the other species in the genus Amorbus. Always remember that there can be a good deal of individual variation in colour patterns within the same species...

Thanks. I have looked at 1000 photos of Amorbus nymphs. Makes me nuts! LOL
