Black Mountain orchid survey Site 3131, 17 October 2015. This might be the same species as my Caladenia sp. b, but I counted them separately pending expert identification. Caladenia sp. a has multiple (2-4) flowers per stem while Caladenia sp. b had only a single flower on each stem. I feel sure at least some of what I recorded as sp. b were actually sp. a but it was impractical to closely examine each plant. I spent 3.5 hours at the site as it was.

I would advise putting the survey point number in the personal notes tab. Moderators are able to see this, but others can not. Just helps to keep the location of these orchids safe.
