Thanks very much Aussiegall. That's a species I hadn't come across and, yes, I think you're right. I will suggest that as the ID.
I have found some examples on Atlas of Living Australia. One is similar in colors to this one. Apparently, the name has been changed to Sastragala versicolor and only one confirmed sighting on NM (South Coast).

Could it possibly be Acanthosoma versicolor?

Thanks, Roger. It's been an interesting spring/summer with several insects, new to me, appearing in our yard.
