Australian Cicadas by M.S. Moulds was first published in 1990 by the New South Wales University Press. It is the best reference for Australian cicadas that I’ve found, and I use it at least once a week.
The book covers common names of cicada, life history, predators & parasites, distribution, anatomy, sound production & reception, and classification. The book also features an extensive catalog of Australian cicadas including photos, maps, and descriptions of their behavior.
It appears on Amazon and Ebay from time to time. I found my copy used. It was expensive but well worth the price.

Well done Dan, a great compendium of cicadas books. I had around 6 copies of Moulds, than I sometimes export!
