Okay, thanks!

Another possibility is the hybrid between the two genera called Angulocaste.

This could be Anguloa virginalis (a genus very closely related to Lycaste, and much more attractive in my opinion) but without seeing the whole flower (inparticular the lower section which is cropped), it's difficult to say.

i have a dwarf Cymbidium that looks almost exactly like this ......... but lip does look more size appropriate for Lycaste.

This looks like the fading flower of an orchid species known as Lycaste... Hard to tell which one though
