At first I thought this was a dead cicada but then realised it was a large moth. Sad face. There were no flies or ants on it.

I'm pretty sure this is a male Wood moth, family Cossidae. Probably an Endoxyla, but without seeing the top side I can't be sure.

@KylieWaldon Hi Kylie, you have this under beetles. Could you please move it to Moths so that the moth maderators can see it.
Thanks
Thanks
