User's notes

Found on a slope at Kinleyside among D. chryseopsis. Although all "open" flowers had been triggered, I could still make out the little black bit on the labellum. I'm pretty sure this is H. cycnocephalus.

Without a view of the labellum suggest record as Hymenochilus sp.

That's fair enough. It was a pity that they were all triggered.
