I think this one is actually C. moschata, but I am a little unsure. I would have expected the labellum teeth to continue further down the labellum.

We saw lots of C. moschata today but only this one as C. ustulata due to the sidelobes having lots more teeth.

That's fair enough. I think the teeth are also a little long for moschata. I will have another look at this later when I am well rested.

Yeah, its a fair point Matt. I think we'll stick with Cal ustulata but it could even be a hybrid.
