    Got this as "epi volutum". It ain't. Anyone recognize it?

    I'm fairly positive it's in group Excisum, with it possibly being E. odontospathum, but you might want to check the description here to see if the details about the plant, leaves, etc check out. From my searching around, it appears to me that online resources for parts of this genus are sorely lacking.

    I hope that I was of help.

    Thanks Zack. That's close, but I don't think it's the same species.

    I tried to find all drawings from sp listed by Jay in this group, none of those mention before match, mostly by different leaves, only SUBGROUP Leucochilum may be right one, but again none of those in Jay match either, lehmanii is a bit close but still different flower position on spike and a bit lip...
