Hi Alison, I think this is Anonychomyrma rather than Iridomyrmex. They can be hard to tell apart, but the fact that they have a nest in a crack in a tree is a very good indicator of Anonychomyrma, which are largely arboreal. Iridomyrmex almost always make nests in the ground. A similar sighting is below. Cheers, Jon

What do you think, Tony? I'm pretty sure it's a peloric Caladenia fuscata. I can't think what else it could be.

I was intrigued, so went searching and, amazingly, found 4 of these plants. A normal labellum was definitely absent and was replaced by an unmodified petal. The colour was also a bit different - creamy rather than white or pink - and the segments were slightly narrower. I will post some picures separately (sighting 3360244).

I was a little confused at what I was looking at but I think there were about 10 other flowers like it in a patch about 10m x 10m
