| Description | This large greencomb spider-orchid grows to over 50cm in the reserve, although plants typically have a stem around 40cm. This one has a fairly loose labellum, which you can see wobbling in a breeze, and this helps to tell it apart from the small greencomb. |
| | It can be found along the road and tracks beside the road in the north and south of the reserve. |
