Pleurothallis saurocephala
Well, not always our beauties do good smell! This one stinks like hell! You don't dare standing close to this crazy little thing or... nightmares and rotten eggs and other stinking things will invade your sleep at night...! Arrgghh!
On the other hand, it has its own visual beauty... A side view of the flower really reminds a lizard mouth, like its name says, lizard head (saurocephala). Enjoy it!!

Tindo, I can say that it faces well temps going as down as 46-43F during the winter nights, with days a little bit warmer (these are common winter temps here where I grow mine).
