Thanks Mike and Jane - should be still showing as rare in the ACT, so perhaps a glitch in the system. Prior to Naturemapr it was known from one location in the ACT but is still fairly restricted - there is one butterfly species that only eats this particular sedge so good to try and protect some of teh ACT patches
