Would you happen to have any more photos of this plant, or others nearby? This appears to be a Prasophyllum in the patens/odoratum complex. Many species in this complex are currently undescribed. This one looks quite similar to the recently described species Prasophyllum jeaneganiae.

Apologies Matt. Not the best photos from my phone. No other images. I can describe how to find it. 6 km walk from the closest road.

Hmm this is an interesting sighting! I don't think we can quite tell from the photos, but certainly in that group. I can't see any problems with it being P jeaneganiae, although confirmation would require closer examination of the labellum I think.
