Default Pleurothallis Platystylis

I picked up this tough little plant in March from eBay. Mostly an impulse buy. Since then, it's had a bout with mealy bugs, which I'm 95% sure are gone. Actually, this was the last plant in my collection that I expected to spike, but I guess it was happy enough with my care. I haven't seen many pictures of these species online, so I thought I'd share.

It's planted in moss and I keep the moss slightly damp. it's in my bathroom to give it higher-than-normal indoor humidity and low-medium light.

There are two spikes of flowers, which are less than a cm tall, maybe 2-3mm wide.

Wow, those blooms do look like my Platystele. Nice species?
