Great that you got the 5 new locations of this little recorded plant in the ACT. If my memory is correct there is a butterfly species for which this Gahnia is an important food plant @SuziBond is that right?

Thanks @MichaelMulvaney yes! The Varied Sedge-skipper depends on this plant in the ACT.
Fantastic find @Ned_Johnston !! Did you see any skippers flying? They should be on the wing now.
