I guess probably Amanita muscaria, a hallucinogenic (and potentially deadly) mushroom. Wikipedia mentions A. xanthocephala as a potential confusion species in Australia but also says it generally lacks the white spots that A. muscaria has: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amanita_muscaria#Description http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amanita_xanthocephala
