A very pale diuris on Mt Majura. The abundance I have provided is specifically referring to this individual pale plant.

I think it is D. pardina, a very yellow one.

Nice sighting Matt. I think a cousin of this plant spotted in the same area last year: http://canberranaturemap.org/Community/Sightings/Details/25464

Yes. I think so too. It's quite astonishing just how much variation was present in the species.

I suspect it is D. pardina lacking pigmentation and have confirmed it as such. Similar plants were found last year including one without any brown markings.
