It is probably var. vaginata, but the diagnostics between var. vaginata and var. brevistigma rely on a number of measurements.

Thanks Betty and Michael. Have they changed the species name from Hypoxis to Pauridea?

Based on some molecular work and morphological analyses the two varieties of what was Hypoxis vaginata have been transferred to the genus Pauridia. The other species in the ACT remain in Hypoxis. The reference is a paper by Snijman D.A. & Kocyan A. 'The genus Pauridia (Hypoxidaceae) amplified to include Hypoxis sect. Ianthe, Saniella and Spiloxene, with revised nomenclature and typification' published in Phytotaxa 116(1):19-33 ยท July 2013
