This is only the second time this plant has been recorded in Australia. The other finding was by Rosemary Purdie in Kambah. This is also mentioned on the PlantNet notes, see http://plantnet.rbgsyd.nsw.gov.au/cgi-bin/NSWfl.pl?page=nswfl&lvl=sp&name=Holosteum~umbellatum

I got my response from David Albrecht at ANBG today - this is Holosteum umbellatum. It is only the second time this plant has been recorded in Australia.
