I do believe it is a Natural hybrid originating from Tolumnia sylvestris.
I got it way up in the mountains here in Jamaica, so i have a feeling nature created this unique one.  |

Now that I'm home, I had a look on Orchidwiz. On the program you can check species per region/country. And I found this one: Tolumnia pulchella. There's a lot of variation in color and also shape, but still I think it's a pretty good match.

Here's what they say about distribution on Orchidwiz:
"Jamaica. Collections are reported at Brown's Town and nearby areas, Manchester, the Cockpit Country, and the hills near Mandeville. Plants grow on small trees in moderately humid forests at 1000–2600 ft. (300–800 m), usually in bright light in areas with strong air movement."

Hybrids are an entirely different beast, too many look alike!

Doesn't hurt to make a thread about it, maybe someone will know, or at the very least have some idea about the parentage.
