Hello everyone I just to my shock found out that what I thought was an encyclia cochlieta was attualy a liparis instread. I have it narrowed down a little to these.

Liparis condybulbon
Or http://www.orchidspecies.com/liparisspectabile.htm
Liparis spectabilis

Can anyone help decide which one it is?

After looking again I am leaning towards Or http://www.orchidspecies.com/liparisspectabile.htm
Liparis spectabilis
because that species petels all curl in where the other species has the lateral petal sticking straight out. What do you folks think?

I kinda think so too , but my eyes are not that accurate , sorry not a lot of help . G

After talking to some others on another site and compairing picture for a couple of hours I have come to the conclusion, with help from others, that this is a Liparis condybulbon. Due to the shape of the Pbulbs and the flkowers do match it too. The spectabilis from what I read has orange flowers and mine sure isn't orange. Thanks everyone for looking and helping out!!
