User's notes

in Grassy Woodland there were several small non fruiting in the drainage line further north that runs parallel to the track to Antill Street entry; no photos of the not fruiting specimens. There is a large tree of same species along Antill street southeast of the Watson Woodland which is most likely the parent plant. Fruits are eaten by birds (Currawongs) as I observed in the nature reserve

@Waltraud I'd confirm it if it would let me. Can you map its location somehow?

I took the photo with my old Camera which has no GPS so I manually put it on the map. I can see the map with the CNM marker of the plant. I can't confirm myself - don't know why - so I suspect you can't either.

I can't see the map or do the confirmation... will try again later.

I placed the item a second time and Tapirlord confirmed. I'm not sure why CNM doesn't let us confirm the species; I certainly confirmed records in the surrounds and further west toward Hackett and I did confirm items before that I photographed with my old GPS-less camera and for which I used the manual map tool.

If you can’t confirm it waltraud then it will be outside the map coverage for whatever reason. Location moderator life I’m afraid

Thanks for the explanation Tapirlord. At least the map is there now and we can see it is located in Hackett.
