Pterostylis alata or Pterostylis striata?

[edit]

Pterostylis alata is recognised as a Tasmanian endemic by the herbaria of The Royal Botanic Gardens Melbourne and the Royal Botanic Gardens Sydney. However, Kew Gardens describes P. striata as a synonym of P. alata.[1] The image in Commons as at 2017/06/07 under the heading Perostylis alata is of a plant in the Brisbane Ranges National Park in Victoria and must therefore be of P. striata.
