C. transitoria has labellum sidelobes with entire margins (no teeth) where this has teeth. By the colour, location and the recurving of the petals and lateral sepals with brown tips, dark purple labellum midlobe apex, this Caladenia hildae. C. testacea is found further north rather in this location.
