The species is only known from two locations on the edge of the floodplain of the Howard River, 30 km south-east of Darwin in the Top End of the Northern Territory. It is found on seasonally saturated, nutrient-poor sandy soils with hot wet summers and hot dry winters. Associated vegetation is mainly grassland and sedgeland with scattered Melaleuca viridiflora trees. Conservation
The species is listed as Endangered under Australia's EPBC Act. The main potential threats include sand mining, vegetation clearance, and hydrological changes due to increased land development and water demand in the region. References
