Eric, this one looks like B.careyanum, but if there is a tooth just below the base of the column, it could be B.tricorne or B.tricornoides = similar to B.tricorne. I think that
B.tricorne has fewer flowers which are more widely spaced around the rhachis.
Hope that this helps.

Bulbophyllum tricornoides

Hi Eric,

I'd go with Bulb. tricornoides as I can make out a tooth beneath the stigma in at least one of the close-up photos.

Bernard and I have discussed this species in a previous post in the recent past.

Cheers.

Thanks Bernard and Gary, I had a closer look at the flowers and there is a tooth there. I will amend the name to Bulbophyllum tricornoides.
