My brain has just kicked in (or partly done so). CSIRO Entomology has an arrangement with the ACT Government that they will provide at no cost to n individual, an identification service for insects seen around the ACT. I can't remember the exact email address but I have found them very helpful a couple of times, and suggest a trawl of the CSIRO site my give it to you.

Sorry this isn't about birds. But, what is this striking looking
insect, seen on our back deck yesterday? It's about 1 cm long, and was
engaged in boring into the timber with its impressive ovipositor when
disturbed by photography.

What family is it, even?
