This looks like a duplicate record of https://canberra.naturemapr.org/sightings/4517030

Matt are you sure about C.valida? I was wondering about what Lachlan calls Chiloglottis aff jeansii in his book. These plants seems to have more calli, and calli in a different arrangement to typical C.valida. Plus the petals aren't incurved for the most part, which Lachlan and Gary suggest is diagnostic of C. aff jeansii

Ah yes. I think you are right. I looked at the spreading petals and for a moment I considered Chiloglottis X pescottiana, but I didn't even consider other Chiloglottis spp.

Yes it is a duplicate, my fault, sort of as I could not see if the previous one had gone into the system. I'm not sure about C. valida, for these. I will remove the other record if I can.

Agree this looks like Chiloglottis aff jeanesii. They are known to occur in Tallaganda area.
