User's notes
Another small colony in amongst several other species which I initially thought was T peniculata, but sharply upcurved arms seem to indicate T arenaria (when combined with other features which exclude T pauciflora)

Personally I would tend towards T.peniculata, the shape of the post anther lobe is more like that species that T.arenaria.
