I would call this Oberonia brunoniana Wight.

The side lobes of labellum has distinct constriction with the midlobe. Midlobe is bilobed with a space in middle.

Although not easy to confirm. May be Shinde sir, Sweedle and Rajesh can check.

Thanks for sharing.

this is surely one of the following:

Oberonia balakrishnanii

Oberonia brunoniana

Oberonia chandrasekharanii

Some on needs to study the Oberonia in souther part of India.

There is an urgent need. I find the monograph of Indian Oberonia by Ansari and Balakrishnan, sometimes not so reliable.

Some one listening sirs !!

Yes Pankaj ji... Oberonias need a revision... It's a herculean task....
