described from two living specimens from different localities. 

 Colour of the sepals, lip and column pale dingy yellow ; of the 

 petals blood red. A very distinct species with the aspect of 

 D. micrantha, bat with a more compact spike, rather smaller 

 flowers, a nearly muticous odd sepal, and a quite different 

 column. The absence of a spur is unique in this group.
