Hi all,
first flowering of this plant bought a couple years ago and supposed to be a Catasetum pileatum...

Bravo. It is cernuum. The lip reminds me of a bat.

Beautiful! I'm also quite interested in the huge-ass leaf on the background!

Thank you all for your comments.

Euplusia: I agree with you; I had the same thought: the bat-orchid

Yéri: the leaf on the background belongs to the cernuum itself; it lost all the leaves but this one during winter and the inflorescence emerged along with the new growth.

Bye
