Rich,
I don't know first hand but there is a reference to plants growing in a
swamp near Batemans Bay on the South Coast of New South Wales. The article
'The Biology and Cultivation of Red Australian Aldrovanda vesiculosa' can be
found in the Carnivorous Plant Newsletter Volume 28, number 4 December 1999.
If this is correct it would place the plants over 100 km south of Sydney.
Then again these plants may have been introduced to this area.
