Prickly Pears (Genus Opuntia)Observer
martinbennettDescription
11.8.5 Eucalyptus orgadophila open woodland. Eucalyptus orgadophila predominates and forms a distinct but discontinuous canopy sometimes with other sub-dominant species such as Corymbia erythrophloia, E. melanophloia and occasionally E. crebra. Shrubs are usually scarce and scattered although a well-defined shrubby layer does develop in some areas.

Thought this cactus was infested with some sort of fungus, but iNat has ID'd it as a Scale Bug. So not sure if this is correct.

marko101Description
Definitely prickly pear, however difficult to tell which specific species of prickly pear it is as it hasn’t flowered. Flat and large cactus pads (green) sticking out from central stem. Pads covered in very small and relatively short spines. Cactus isolated from other plants.
