User's notes
One pollinated plant and one leaf. As this individual was pollinated it suggests a 3rd plant was near by that provided the pollinia to fertilise this one.
ID is based on the purple labellum with numerous, short teeth along the margins, and the presence of clubs on the sepals inc. lateral sepal.
