Determination note

The photograph (and associated ones at http://www.stridvall.se/flowers/gallery/Calytrix) are not Calytrix alpestris as labelled. The leaves are too inclined to the stem and too elongated, and the flowers have awned calyces (if you look closely). Both these features match Calytrix tetragona, which grows at the locality of the photograph and is the only other species of Calytrix growing within hundreds of km. Refer also to such references as 'Flora of Victoria' vol. 3, p. 1040.
