I believe this is Oberonia mucronata. This has a lot of variation in
shape and size. But frankly, I am too bad in Oberonias.

Oberonia recurva - a wild guess. As it is too difficult to say the species of oberonia without examining the specimen. The Monograph on Indian Oberinias by Dr. R. Ansari and Dr. N.P. Balakrishnan can be consulted for final identification.

thanks a lot Dinesh, infact I had kept this pic in my folders as recurva, but as you rightly said, its too difficult. Sometimes even with flowers in hand it becomes tricky to id these plants.

This I can agree with Oberonia recurva.

Always good to show closeups.
