Brian - Thanks for the excellent photo of this restricted distribution species. Can you check the map location showing for this record and determine whether the lats and longs are correct for the site. It comes out at around 540 m which is extraordinarily low for this subalpine and alpine species. Send a message to my email address if you like. Thanks, Will

Will & Brian
If this location was imbedded in the image, then it would have to be correct?? - unless Brian Brian dropped a pin on a map.

Thanks, Guys. For range restricted species, I normally add a broad locale when on an open forum. However this specimen was found around the Perisher area.
