Bulbophyllum Longiss.. wait a minute.
This plant was ID-ed as Bulbophyllum Longissimum and was very happy when it came into spike. I thought nothing of it till it bloomed today! Clearly not a Longissimum, but what is it?

Maybe something in the lobbii complex? Pretty cool, whatever it is.

Hi all,
maybe it could be? closest match i got is Bulbophyllum orectopetalum.
shown here,

It cannot be a Bulbophyllum siamense tho because it does not have distinctive stripes but rather speckled with reddish dots. |

I agree with Xenophon, looks like Bulbophyllum orectopetalum to me.
