Specimen notes
Supplementary remarks:
002/009/103 I believe this to be Tmesipteris 'Banks Peninsula' = 'TE OKA. (Note the characters of the nuucro.?). As such, it is an important specimen. The population is believed to be extinct. The exact site is not easily accessible. I have seen it from below, but isn't accessible to me! This station was discovered by Martin Daelleubach and/or Touittuber. I think no one else saw it there.
