Hello Lee,
Your photos look like D. vittatus or D. granariensis. I would guess
the latter since there are no obvious side blotches. Both come from
areas known as the wheat belt in Australia (one on the east and west
coasts). Check out Hal Cogger's book for an accurate, easy to use key to
the genus for a correct id, though.
