Photo 3 is of C. moschata but not photos 1 and 2 they are C. ustulata. You need to separate this into two records. The difference is that C. ustulata has teeth all the way back along the labellum margins (the edges) where C. moschata the teeth are only on the margins of the labellum midlobe (the front) with the labellum sidelobes entire (meaning no teeth). If you look at the edges of the labellums in photos 1 & 2 you will see the teeth just continue all the way back but in photo 3 the teeth stop and the sidelobes continue raised with smooth edges. The smell would have also been very different.

If you could just remove photo 3 and use it to create an addition record, then we will confirm this record as Caladenia ustulata.
