Do not worry. Epis (or encyclias now or whatever lol) are much more tolerant than those uppety miltassias.

The pseudobulb and leaf shapes are similar to miltassias but you can see subtle differences and the encyclia leaves have thicker substance than miltassias.
The pseusobulbs also appear smoother compared to the oncidium alliance orchids.

Encyclias/epidendrum culture leans more towards cattleya conditions (bright, but not burning sunlight). The only difference is that encyclias need a slight drying out period when the pseudobulbs are mature.
