Hi Anna. Can I just get you to have a look at the location for this one and confirm it is correct? It is quite disjunct from other populations and is in an area that I wouldn't normally consider suitable habitat.

If that is the specimen we saw today on the CNM walk it is way out of the location.
The specimen we saw had a large leaf like the one on the photograph.

Got message from Anna and have amended the sighting with the correct coordinates.

Wonderful sighting. I put my macro photo of the same specimen on my Flickr page (location suppressed).
