Thank you Alex, they are Karri tree flowers ( Eucalyptus ) on the grounds. The black parts were growing right on the moss, i'm pretty sure they are young fungis. i'll keep looking...
what's the 3 objects on the ground ?, (2 similar,down- right&left,looking like some stamp of a flower --- and the yellow/white looked like some crest of a flower). Could it be that the black fungi-lookalike is also a rotting plant-piece. When you are really sure, this is an fungi, take a look at the "ascomycetes" of australian. (i have looked but could not find any usefully info). i have something similar (black round ascomycete, edges curled upwards) i will upload the next time, but i dont think it's the same.
