    Default catasetum saccatum

    One of the orchids that will "throw" it's pollen at you ! It also has the superglue of orchids, that it attaches its pollen with. Very sturdy !

    Something(a gnat or fly) made most of them eject and hit the floor but there was one that "attacked" my finger !(second picture)
