Of the Dillwynias listed in the ACT plant census, this is the only species with twisted leaves. The leaves of this plant appear largely glabrous which is inconsistent with the others I've seen in the ACT but permissible in the PlantNET key.

The other worry about the ID as Dillwynia phylicoides as an ID is that the calyx appears to be covered in tiny hairs. The Plantnet key says it should be hairless or with stiff hairs. I am not sure that in this case the twisted leaves is a good character. I have been caught before with peas with not twisted leaves that get twisted as they dry out.
