Thanks for that.
There has been a bit of chatter in the last few days about the Corunastylis at that site.
Fast coming to the conclusion that it is C oligantha.
Photographed in 2022 and 2023 also.

@Tapirlord I believe this may be at the same location I visited today. If so, Tobias and Gavin Phillips (whom Lachlan recommended as an expert in this species group) think these plants are C oligantha, or possibly C sagittifera. The labellums have too much red to be C cornuta. Something to consider for the ID on this sighting?

I think the general consensus is that T.rubra doesn't occur in NSW.

The flower was less than 10mm wide.
I haven’t seen T. rubra but the books point out the salmon colour on the column which these didn’t have. Other plants to come in to flower so needs watching.
