Could be either montanus or umbrinus, so will have to go with sp. for this one.

Unfortunately the flower is spent so I won't be able to get a look atvthe labellum til next year. Can you tell which species by habitat? This one within 10 m of stream in shrubby vegetation. I've added more photos of habitat and a close up of the leaves.

Unfortunately not, they sometimes grow side by side. I think B montanus is most likely, given location and flower seems small, but hard to say for sure.
