Orchids are a huge learning for me at the moment, so my apologies if I have (and I probably have!) mismatched the species.

The long dorsal sepal with two prominent spots is indicative of Diuris sulphurea. Typically the dorsal sepal of this species is positioned almost horizontally while it is more vertical in the other species.
