I think this is a young Phlebopus Pam. Lucky you. The biggest mushroom in Aus. Some are a metre across.

thanks Argy Bee and Francis... Argy Bee... It would comfortably fit in the palm of my hand with a slither of hand showing all round the edge!

That's a super find at this stage of the season. Some kind of bolete. Was it big?
