Diuris maculata has been split a few times. My understanding this is that maculata occurs near the central coast. This is probably pardina or semilunulata.

Thanks for that. I was using the Field Guide to Orchids in NSW and Vic (Bishop; 1997) - looks like a lot has happened since. Learnt something...

Unfortunately there are so many revisions, undescribed species and undiscovered species that guides go out of date very quickly. In fact I can think of at least one or two undescribed species that occur within the ACT border!
