One of my friends got this Pleurothallis species today. No tags, and I can't find anything similar to it online.

It's a Dryadella species, but very difficult to tell which one from the pictures. It would help to have some pictures with accurate color and showing some of the inner detail of the flower.

From what I've looked up it looks like D. simula or edwallii.

Doesn't look like my simula.

My leaves are more slender. Of course, that could just be a variation within the species. IDK

For a more accurate ID some better pictures are really needed.

The leaves look red, either thats an artifact of the photography or cultivation or genetics. Either way would like to say it looks awesome in the picture.

Does anyone know if this species would turn that colour do to over exposure to bright light??
Sorry can't help with the ID.

The older leaves actually are red. I adjusted for accurate color on the RAW files. I should have better pics up later today. It only has one flower left.
The dorsal sepal curves like D. aviceps does, so that's another possibility. D. litoralis is another possibility.
