Great picture! I can't identify this one right now, but it isn't an Encyclia tampensis...

I agree with you Pat. There are several closely-related Encyclias, and even a white form of tampensis, but I can't find reference to a maroon form. This is the standard tampensis....

My best guess is Encyclia hanburyi, or a hybrid of it. The main difference I see is the sepal and petal striation lacking, and the side lobes of the labellum are brown. I think I have a variation of Enc. hanburyi that it close to what yours looks like. It is in spike now, and will bloom in a few weeks.
Can you post a picture of the plant?  Still a very nice plant, the flowers look attractive and plentiful!
