Minature Orchids, ID if possible
 
4 Attachment(s)
Two very small orchids would like names if possible. Both are from Costa Rica. The white/pink one is a very healthy plant with a lot of foliage and few flowers. The yellow one fell out of a tree in our coffee plantation and was dying. It now looks reasonably healthy in a pot. Any ideas would be great. Thanks.

The first one is a Scaphyglottis. Don't know the species.

The second one looks familiar, but I can't think of the name. Also, it'd be helpful to see a photo of the plant itself.

Just did a search on the Scaphyglottis.

I think it might be Scaphyglottis crurigera.

Number 2 reminds me of a polystachya but I'm not sure.

#1 is not cruigera, that has long flower stems and a purple column. More likely livida (old name Hexadesmia sessilis).
