This one looks very much like H. cycnocephalus, based on the small dark somewhat pointed basal appendage to the labellum.

Thanks Tony. Now I see what you mean about the appendage to the labellum.

Hi Michael - do you reckon this species would still exist in the area given the development that's happened over time? I.e. the proximity of houses etc?

You mean on Tuggeranong Hill Reserve? I don't know. I can't remember the exact spot of that sighting. I haven't been looking for them there. I have been looking more in the Rob Roy area, which I have not explored thoroughly. I will be reporting another find soon.
