Actually M. duboulayi go as far south as the Bellinger River, which is the
next system south. I am expecting to be around this area on the 20th of this
month chasing rainbows. I would be particularly keen if you could give me
directions to exactly where you found them as it would save me a lot of
hassle. Of course, if you'd like to join us the more the merrier!! However,
I am only in email contact today, after that I am on the road. Hence if you
wanted to join us better blip me a contact number privately.
