This may be X. resinosa, however, the pre-anthesis packing-bract colour appears lighter brown than what is typically seen in X. resinosa, and is more consistent with X. concava. X. resinosa spike is usually a darker-brown colour than what appears in this image, however this may just be the camera not picking up the correct colour tone. For me it remains inconclusive as to which of these two affiliated species it may be.
