Thelymitra stellata – Star Orchid

This species was named by John Lindley in 1840 from specimens collected by James Drummond in 1839. It was then reduced to a variety of the Chestnut Sun Orchid, Thelymitra fuscolutea but, following a more recent revision, has once again been recognised as a species.
