Default Cattleya x mesquitae L. C. Menezes

Nice natural hybrid between Cattleya walkeriana and Cattleya nobilior as recently described as 1996. Both vegetative parts and flowers are very similar to the parents, so it is difficult to distinguish the hybrid from them. I am sure that this natural hybrid was found before 1996, but not recognized as being so.

Another beauty, Mauro! I love the shading and it looks like a large flower for the size of the plant. Well done.
