I'm finding it difficult to judge scale here. I could well be in the wrong group of thelys.

Actually on second thought, unlikely to be T.peniculata, I think the lack of a notch on the post anther lobe makes this T.pauciflora?

Without a side-on photo of the flower to see the arrangement and shape of the hair tufts, I am uncomfortable assigning a species to this one.
