Hmm this is a tricky one, not sure whether its pardina, semilunulata or nigromontana. Bit hard to get a read on the shape of the flowers from this angle. Thoughts anyone else?

You could be right Derek. Perhaps best to put D sp. for this one and acknowledge defeat

It is more a case of orchid not being typical. There can be both hybrids and natural variation in this Diuris with makes it had to be sure at times.
