This looks like C. cucullata, but I'd be surprised if there were 75 of these. I wonder if some could be C. moschata.

I thought all the flowers looked the same, but C. moschata is not all that different. As all the plants were close together in about a metre square patch, and all looked basically the same, I assumed they probably were all the same.

Apologies. If they were all in such a small area, they probably are all the same. I thought perhaps it was a total for the whole site.

It was an amazing patch. I don't think I have ever seen so many in one small area! There did not seem to be any more in other parts of the site.
