Pedicel with ovary 3 mm long, glabrous, terete. Dorsal sepal very narrowly linear-triangular, 2.6 cm by 3 mm, acuminate. Lateral sepals connate into a synsepalum that is rather similar to the dorsal sepal, 2.6 by 4 mm, apex bidentate. Petals narrowly lanceolate-caudate, 1.4 cm by 1.6 mm, margins densely long-ciliate, acuminate. Lip very narrowly triangular, 9.2 by 1.6 mm, at the base with two small, erect auricles on either side of a very short claw, the basal margins produced into short, erect, rounded lateral lobes fringed with long papillae, in between these lobes with a transverse strongly papillose callus; margins of the lip, except at the very base, densely long-ciliate; apex obtuse. Column very short, without the stelidia 0.6 mm long, clinandrium with a subulate filament, stelidia relatively very large, 1.4 mm long, subulate, curved inwards, on the inner margin below the apex with a triangular tooth; column-foot projecting forwards, rectangular, longer than the stelidia, 1.8 mm long. Anther cucullate with a median hump, 0.7 mm long, papillose.
