This species is generally restricted to coastal areas and rarely occurs so far inland. This record represents the western/inland limit for the species within NSW. This is also the first sighting of the species within the CNM boundary.

@mattm ooo, cool!! I wasn't sure, as I've never seen either Corunastylis or Prasophyllum in person before this trip, and I rather unhelpfully forgot my orchid guides, oops.
