How do you distinguish the species from Goodenia pinnatifida? To me, ley person flowers and leaves look very similar.
Leaves, see for instance Goodenia pinnatifida (Scrambled Eggs)

Waltraud I agree with you, I think this looks more like goodenia pinnatifida than velleia paradoxa.

The leaves are looking like those of G. pinnatifida that I came across.
I think the record requires correction.

I'm not familiar with a nectary spur - is it visible on the photograph? I will further investigate.

Okay, Roger sent me a great photo of a lateral view of a Velleia paradoxa showing the spur (which can't be seen in a frontal dorsal view of the flower).
I think, there is no convincing evidence to id this particular specimen as Velleia paradoxa.
It would be the first record of the species in the Mts Ainslie / Majura reserves so it is super important to get the id right!
The people, I asked to have a look at this specimen, agreed that it looks more like Goodenia pinnatifida.
It is a hard one!
