Flowers seemed a little smaller than those of Bunochilus I have seen around Canberra. My guess is B. montanus given its position at the top of a mountain ridge.

Goodness these odd Bunochilus just keep coming. First thoughts are B umbrinus but the fact you thought them smallish and the seemingly obvious hairs are a little odd. Would you be able to email me the full res photos?

There is an interesting note at the bottom of the Field Guide under B. montanus.

Tobias, I am starting to think this is just a small B. umbrinus (but I am still not entirely confident).

Yeah, I'm leaning that way too. I've sent the photos to Lachlan Copeland, see what he thinks.

Lachlan agrees B umbrinus seems reasonable. They're definitely odd flowers, particularly the margins of the labellum so well-developed and hairy, but other than that looks good for B umbrinus.
