Default Paphinia rugosa
Great little species - flowers about 3" tall on a plant about 6" tall. Soft foliage surrounding very small pseudobulbs. Can be difficult to establish, but grows well once it gets going. Likes warm and humid. This photo was taken from underneath the plant.
Photographed at Ecuagenera's nursery in Guayaquil, Ecuador.

Wow, great picture.

I'm not generally a fan of orchids in this alliance but you make this one look fantastic.

It's one of the best of the alliance. Always glad to help make a "convert"!
