I'm suggesting this is a Megalopsalis Genus. See https://bie.ala.org.au/species/https://biodiversity.org.au/afd/taxa/c735342a-422e-4b3c-a826-79e9194fc3a3#gallery

The colouration and bulging pedipalps (pincers) indicate Cercophonius rather than the more slender Lychas.

Looks very like this one Max photographed on our place at Brogo: https://atlasoflife.naturemapr.org/Sightings/3361718
Scorpions are not insects, but arachnids like spiders (8 legs, not 6), and placed under terrestrial invertebrates for ALCW reporting.
