I'm not sure if anyone else has called it this, but my "Wasp Orchid" supposedly developed a similar mechanism for pollenization:

Dendrobium spectabile

That "Wasp Orchid" Dendrobium spectabile got its name from its dingy yellow colour with less remarkable stripes. Often I used to feel that God was not certain how this orchid specie should look like! Moreover wasps being truly predatory seldom do bees job of pollination.
