Yes Peter! I'm just taking a lunch break from spraying Paterson's Curse, switched on the computer and voila - how wonderful! Thanks for sharing your significant findings!

Thanks Peter are all of your abundance figures independent of each other, e.g are the 4-15 of this photo separate from the orchid numbers in your other reports?

Yes Michael, at each location I found at least 5 plants other than this sighting where there were a couple more outside the grouping of six in the photo. I guess if I spent more time at each point there may have been more. In general it seems where there are a few rocks and or bare patches they are to be found! A thorough survey may find many more if these are indeed new locations?
