Finding
SITF confirms this plant as Eulophia maculata (Aug 2025). This species, which is widespread, is much more commonly known as Oeceoclades maculata (synonymous with Eulophia maculata). The lip of E. maculata has a big, pronounced v-shaped crest, large enough to almost look like lip lobes, at the very back of the lip which matches this plant. The bulbous yellow nectary also can be seen in online images of the flower. Another species, Eulophia monophylla is considered synonymous with E. maculata. Matching photos can be seen in the IOSPE as Oeceoclades maculata and in the orchidroots.com.
