Do you realise that Leccinum is not native to Australia. The only species recorded here (as per Roy Halling and current accepted knowledge as per 28th June 2019) are exotics imported in association with horticultural plantings (Betula, Quercus) as is the case in N.Z.. Do you therefore list your sighting as exotic, plus the other listings, or are you sure that the genus sighted is correct?
