Proportions of the synsepalum and the shape of the labellum suggest that this is more likely to be B. montanus.

Similar plants in a large population in Aranda Bushland are quite variable in photos. So much depends on the angle of the photo. There was only one plant at this site last year and I haven't been able to find any this year, although the grass is so thick that they would be easy to miss. This would be a first record of montanus for the Black Mtn area, so if there is any doubt, it might be better to leave it as sp.
