Almost looks like C.ustulata or C.moschata x some kind of spider.

Yes, I thought it looked odd, unaware of any spiders in that area. C. ustulata definitely.

I think the spidery look is more a function of the exposed labellum tip. The plant in the background has the more typical rolled labellum tip that you would usually expect in C. moschata.
