Looks like a light coloured version of this species which is getting close to a version of B.rufinun which also has large bracts.

The inflorescence of B.rufinum has more spaced flowers than the one shown above.

yes I agree rik, B.rufinum also has several varieties. What I was trying to point out was the similarity to the large bracts behind the flowers, in fact there are other bulbophyllums with proportionately longer bracts behind the flowers.

I'm happy to keep the name Bulb longibracteatum on this plant if it agreeable. Therefor can we take it out of 'Can you ID this'
