Default Cattleya Identification Help

I have a very nice and sweetly scented Cat blooming now, pictured at the top of my Picasa page. It may wind up being a NOID, but since the majority of my Cats are species I am hopeful... Many of my orchids were seriously impacted by the three hurricanes of '04 & '05, some were blown out of their pots and the tags were sent into the next county, never to be seen again. Any help will be appreciated Also posted are 2pics of my R digbyana blooming for the first time

Hi--

Your orchids are very nice.

I think the yellow and red one in the picture "2 unidentified catts" is possibly Potinara Burana Beauty.

Thanx for the suggestion. It is a fairly close match, but there a a couple of differences. I put the two pictures side by side and the purple on the lip and the lower rear petals are different. I do appreciate your help, but I think I need to keep searching before calling it a noid.
