Very likely Cheilanthes tenuifolia (or now, more correctly, Cheilanthes austrotenuifolia) rather than C. sieberi.

Hi @michaelb, any chance we can remove the name C. tenuifolia from the system? This species was split up into C. sieberi and C. austrotenuifolia (many years back now), so is no longer a valid name. I have re-assigned all the sightings previously under the name. Thanks

Thanks Luke. C. tenuifolia deleted from CNM. However it may still exist on the national taxonomy which I can't delete from at the moment.

There is also C.distans in that area
