Please check Otochilus noe Coelogyne.


May I request you to post a high res. image with other images, if you have any.


1 image.


I always feel tough to check Otochilus, they all look so similar except that some are narrow and some broad leaved.


Looks close to Otochilus lancilabius Seidenf.


I can agree with … Holding the ear from the other side, that leaf doesn’t belong to fuscus and the flower doesn’t belong to porrectus. So the last option is lancilabius.

Please check Coelogyne lancilabia (Seidenf.) R.Rice !


Certainly looks like either Coelogyne lancilabia (Seidenf.) R.Rice. or Otochilus lancilabius.


I think this is Otochilus lancilabius.
