Default Help needed identifying a wrongly labelled orchid

This plant was sold to me as Nanodes porpax several months ago, but now that it finally bloomed it is obvious there is a mistake in the label... The plant indeed look like Nanodes porpax, but the flower is completelly different...

Flower is 1.2 cm (0.6") and the plant has no pseudobulbs but a continuosly growing stem.

Any ideas?


P.S.- I have contacted the nursery (which is normally quite serious and good in labelling), and the reply was: "hhm... weird how this could have happened, but it really looks like Dendrobium lodigesii..." (and I am quite sure it is NOT dendrobium lodigesii!!! I replied to that e-mail asking if they had ever seen a Dendrobium lodigesii)
