I don’t know if it’s my imagination, but the flower looks smaller than usual and the petals also look narrower than usual. I wonder if this is potentially C. jeansii. Thoughts @TobiasHayashi ?

I now think these are valida. Apparently the rear calli are more stalked in jeansii whereas they appear short in these images. The petals also seem fine for valida too.
