iNat AI thinks this is G. hispida. It does look like G. hispida but the leaves are ovate here. Does G. hispida have ovate-to-lanceolate heteroblasty?
Different colour morphs next to each other
really hard to tell but it looks like the trichomes are sessile
"Hedera hibernica is the more prevalent of the two species of Hedera naturalised in Victoria.
Hedera hibernica differs from H. helix in the leaves usually being lobed < 1/2 way to the base with lobes often as wide as long .... and the hairs on young leaves and young stems in vegetative shoots stellate, generally sessile, the central part occupying 1/6–1/3 of the diameter, hairs often pale yellowish brown, sometimes white or off-white, or orange or tan in the centre with rays mostly white or off-white, or indumentum a mixture of these colours"

Seedlings in a small artificial pond in the reserve.
ID tentative.
Note the stellate indumentum on the petioles and abaxial laminal surface, which suggests Hedera helix rather than the commoner species naturalised in Victoria, Hedera hibernica.
Mature Phyllocladus aspleniifolus fruiting bodies
Voucher specimen D.Nicolle 1978.
Mallee-shrub about 0.5 metres tall x 2 metres wide. Bark smooth, light grey. Leaves glossy, dark green, with many island and intersectional oil glands. In full flower (white). Growing among rocks on steep edge of ridge with depauperate Eucalyptus coccifera - E. nitida intergrades, Banksia marginata and other shrubs.
Lots of fruiting bodies at various stages on one log
Update:
I found several of these at Cedar Bog again this year. The last one might be Hexatoma brevicornis, so if you have expertise, please D.

Note: I have photographed this Hexatomini at Cedar Bog in Champaign County, Ohio for at least 17 years. Always in the same area.
I've added two other observations; one from back in 2004.

Here's an observation this year (2022) with better pics of wing venation. Same location.

Purple Glory Tree or Tibouchina Grandiflora
Very tiny but exceptionally beautiful. I'd love to ID it. Thanks in advance!
A pair checking out hollows in a tree, presumably for nesting. These hollows are usually inhabited by rainbow lorikeets (Trichoglossus moluccanus).

Digitised from a slide. The original slide, which is of higher quality, is held.

2nd photo is stalk with paving-like structure, and 3rd photo is spherical spores. Last photo is the 'slugs' tranforming into fruitbodies. They are eating a yellow bacterium.
It has dextrinoid spores, not mentioned in the literature, but then people don't often mount myxos in melzers reagent.
Maroon-brown flowers, approximately 60mm across growing among the sphagnum moss and leaf litter on the slope above a treefern grove. The flowers were positioned in the centre of two broad green, veined leaves.
The plants grew as a scattered small colony.
Attached as an epiphyte to Amphibolis antarctica.
