Police have released photos of the T-shirt, pink track pants and blue teddy bear pyjamas found with the skeletal remains on Tuesday, near the Karoonda Highway at Wynarka, east of Adelaide.
The clothing, including a purple Dora the Explorer T-shirt, blue pyjama shorts and a pair of pink track-pants, were found in a suitcase about 2kms west of the Wynarka township in the Murray Mallee region, on Wednesday 15 July.
"From 5pm last night police have received nearly 100 calls from the public to Crime Stoppers, which is encouraging and we urge anyone that recognises any of the clothes to please contact police," said Detective Superintendent Des Bray, the officer in charge of Major Crime Investigation Branch.
"Forensic Scientists are also working around the clock to help provide vital information to assist in the investigation.
Police say they believe the child who gender is still unknown is aged between 2-5 years and was murdered at another location, but the motive and the exact time frame is unknown.
"We are also seeking any information about a man seen by several people walking along the Karoonda Highway, carrying a dark suitcase, about 8am one morning about six to eight weeks ago," Detective Superintendent Bray said.
The offender is described as being aged about 60, of Caucasian appearance, average height, lightly built, clean cut and neatly dressed. He was not a local, Detective Bray added.
