Comments: This was received as the species Sobralia sessilis, but Dr. Leslie A. Garay examined the photo and said, "...it is not Sobralia sessilis. It is a hybrid most probably with S. sessilis or biflora as one of the parents. Where the serrate-dentate petals come from I cannot guess at this point, probably a white-flowered species."
