Default Oncidium pumilum Lindl.
Beautiful miniature orchid, there are two types of floral stems in this species, one barely reaching the top of the leaves and another, like this one, much longer. As for the genus name, Braem want it Lophiaris, Mark Chase want it Trichocentrum... well for now I'm following Lindley, the father of modern orchidology and who first described this orchid, and keeping Oncidium.

Happy New Year, Mauro

The plant itself not more than 3.5-4".
Happy New Year to you too, Susanne, and to all our friends on OB!

An absolutely lovely little charmer. I'm one hundred percent with you on the names, Mauro!

A nice oncidium!
Though they are little plants, the can have plenty of tiny flowers, which makes them splendid plants.
