User's notes
Several specimens across property, mostly in shaded areas and often near water eg upper edge of dam, high bank of creek. These pictures are mostly of young specimens. Locally it is known as lawyer vine, but common names being as precise as they are . . . ?

I don't believe this to be Araujia sericifera, the leaves on the moth plant look softer and not coarse and tough as the leaves on this vine, (Sighting 4640383). I may have seen flowers, can't be sure, but if so, they would have been tiny (verging on unnoticeable) not moderately large and showy as depicted in the image at the Araujia sericifera link. (I would have particularly noticed any as prominent as those).
