User's notes

Jenni Marsh from Friends of Mount Majura discovered this very important sighting which we think is likely to be an Eriochilus leaf, possibly Eriochilus cucullatus. Will monitor the site next autumn to try to get confirmation if and when they flower.

This definitely looks like the leaf of Eriochilus cucullatus. The leaf is barely noticeable at flowering time (autumn) but continues to develop after flowering has finished and is most noticeable during the winter months.
