Geez, amazing eye Ciaran! I have to say I find these 2 species really tricky to differentiate. There are over 100 plants at this location, which has previously been identified as T. pauciflora. Keen to get your opinion on the previous record, noting both species may occur within this little patch: Thelymitra pauciflora (Slender Sun Orchid)
