I think these are D. subalpina could you also include a photo of the leaves as that is important in determining these species.

No leaves but I think still D. subalpina.

Shortly often D. monticola can replace D. subalpina in the same meadows and be confusing but again they have 5-9 leaves and are both taller and the flowers larger. With subalpina (and other species) it is helpful to include a photo of the leaves.

What is also important is the last photos showing only two leaves. While it is not always mentioned D. subalpina only has two leaves and different to D. chryseopsis which can have 4-9 leaves. I believe these are D. subalpina.

A different plant in both cases, i'm confident this isn't p.hieracioides as that species has at least two flowers per head. see Podolepis hieracioides (Long Podolepis)
i've had a look at one record from delegate which has been misidentifed, (also p.jaceoides).

Podolepis jaceoides
