So excited to see this down in the valley, didnt expect it. Thought Corunastylis but not around here? also possibly Prasophyllum?

There are a couple of montane/subalpine corunastylis, C.nuda and C.turfosa for instance

Either would be new for Kosciuszko? Will have to come back!

On naturemap yep, but both are known from the park. C.nuda is fairly widespread in the alps, C.turfosa not so much

Ok good to know!

Out of interest @Tapirlord would ALA be the best place to check records which obviously aren't on NatureMapr?
