(Not positive on the ID for this one. Please feel free to correct me.)
 
I’m no expert but I’m pretty sure this is indeed a Black Rock Scorpion Urodacus manicatus. It looks to be the only Urodacus in range and this genus is extremely distinctive with its comparatively large claws compared to other genera in southern Australia.
