Plant height was ~30cm. Was in pretty much same location as https://canberra.naturemapr.org/sightings/4458452 and initially thought it too might be D. amabilis but labellum looks different?

The flowers look quite small and the labellum lacks the orange centre so I am happy to call this D. chryseopsis. The plant you linked to is a bit trickier.
