Default Sophronitis coccinea
Here's a sample - perhaps not the greatest shape, but the wonderful color nonetheless:

That's interesting the yellow line visible in the ventral sepal... this is often an indication of a labeloid flower.

Mauro,
The first time it bloomed I thought perhaps it was just an aberration, but it has this every time it blooms.

Ronald, that persistence can be seen as one more indication in that direction!!

Mauro,
It has this yellow on both lower sepals. That doesn't show in the picture, but it is persistent.
