i think it is a Mokara?

i found this....This orchid is the result of crosses among three genera (Arachnis x Ascocentrum x Vanda). The “X” in front of the genus name indicates that it is a cross between two genera. It is unknown if the genus name Mokara is botanically correct

Very possible... with hybrids, too many look similar for a definite ID.

Mokara is at best, a group, lol. Any time I find myself on a Thai or Indonesian website I realize they have a VERY different relationship to these plants and I take it as general cultural notes. The ghost orchids taught me that hahaha. So many mislabeled or just not ghost orchids. You get what you pay for, as they say.
