Pleurothallis or Stelis?

Thank you for your time.

Looks like a Pleurothallis of some sort.

Thank you very much for your comment. According to the book that I have, some species of Pleurothallis has moved to the genus Stelis. I wonder how I can tell them apart. For example, it looks like a Pleurothallis to me, too. Could it be a Stelis?
