Were the flowers larger than normal chryseopsis? I'm thinking this looks like Diuris amabilis

I'm not sure. I'll pop back and have another look. Anything else I should be looking for?

Looking at it again, I think there's enough to say amabilis here. The flowers are obviously larger, the labellum is often broader and has a deep golden particularly in the centre

I ended up back looking at the Diuris amabilis in the same location so added extra photos :)
