Spathoglottis papuana
Alongside dirt track on degraded land in foothills of Cyclops Mountains.
Confirmation of species ID needed. Coordinate position not precise.
Thanks. Both species accepted by Kew Gardens et al, and not synonyms. plicata is very widespread. papuana only from New Guinea. But I'm no expert...
I think ceherzog has it. Maybe papuana is more of a local species name. It's odd how much these look like Phalaenopsis as well.
