Default Unknown species - what is this?

I've this one for many years, always looking a bit sad, but now it suddenly wants to live - I got it from a market in southern China before CITES, so I just brought it home (I'm that old). The leaves are very stiff, bulbs about 3cm. But what is it?

Welcome to the Orchid Board!

It looks like it's in genus Coelogyne. I don't know them well enough to tell them apart. You can look at them on the Internet Orchid Species Photo Encyclopedia (IOSPE.)

It could be Coelogyne flaccida, but the description in wikipedia suggests it should be larger, about twice as large. Otherwise it seems to be spot on.

Wouldn't trust wiki. Check out IOSPE(estacion seca suggestion. Always my first go-to btw). But a lovely Coelogyne you have none the less.
