This orchid look like Flickingeria xantholeuca, but differencies in colour and size of pseudobulbs (form). First description from Singapore by Ridley at year 1896. We found similar specimen from Muaro Jambi regency, Jambi, sumatra, and will to be as a new record for Sumatra species. I think this is a lowland orchid.
