The central beak on the labellum appendage identifies this as H. cycnocephalus.

Hi Tony, I'm really interested to know how to tell the difference between H. bicolor and H. cycnocephalus...! I have no idea. This was just another sighting at Mt Majura and I assumed they were all H. bicolor. Any light you can shed would be great, thanks...

Oh my goodness now I can see the difference with the labellum as per your comment. This means Mount Majura also has this species. Woohoo!!! Tony you are a legend for picking this up.
