In grassy woodland drainage line; sprawling plant, hard to say how many; seems confined to one patch.

I certainly agree with the Genus but I wouldn't know the difference between the 2 proposed species.

It would be unusual to see A.denticulata away from a creek or drainage channal. The undescribed species occurs in box gum woodland and grassland. It has shorter and broader foliage

Many thanks :-) The specimen I recorded here is in a drainage line just below the spill way of a nearby dam; there was a lot of water flow during the major rain events in the past 3 LaNina years leading to the spread of rushes and sedges and other moisture loving herbs.
