Wow - stunning. I had no idea such orchids existed. Thank you for posting so many beautiful photos of orchids, they have really helped educated me.

It is about time that the Atlas accepted the generic name Dockrillia for these orchids. It is well supported by science and accepted by several international organisations. See Plants of the World Online (POWO) at https://powo.science.kew.org/.
