Hoverfly observed inspecting open flower. Appeared to 'lick' the column of one flower, but didn't proceed further. Following on from a sighting by RAllen. Growing in Poa tussock in snow gum woodland with brachyloma and tea tree. High forb diversity. Under canopy (burnt) on edge of swamp where the ground is just above the inundated swamp. Dark sandy loam.
