User's notes
Assuming that Slender Onion Orchid is correct, this is one of six separate patches in DSW that I am aware of. The remaining two patches will be submitted later. It appears to have benefited from the formation of artificial grasslands and it also appears to be able to move into disturbed locations.

Microtis seem to be do a reasonable job at colonising disturbed areas. If it weren't for the exotic weed species taking over disturbed areas, you would probably see more Microtis.
