Pleurothallis aff. sp grobyi

I assumed this was just Pleurothallis grobyi but
I compared the flowers with those of Pleuro.
grobyi I found on the web and noted that it
wasn't quite the same so then I checked the
tag again.

I googled the tag and found out that it means
it is a Pleurothallis that has an affinity (aff.) to the
sp (species) grobyi but hasn't (at the time of
collecting or labelling) actually been
formally identified... cool!

Hopefully next time it flowers I may be able
to get a better macro photograph showing more
detail.
