Almost certainly a hybrid, and hundreds of different hybrids could have this general appearance. There is no way to ever get a definite identification. Paphiopedilum hybrid, Maudiae-type.

I agree Kirk.

 

[SlipperFan]

I agree Kirk.

Me, too. Nice flower, though.

That is a hard one! There seems to be a strong fowliei influence, but the petals seem to have a curtisii influence and the dorsal seems to show some lawrenceanum. A hybrid would be impossible to identify, but it makes an interesting dissection exercise.
Nice bloom, do you have any details on it?

 

[reivilos]

This is a selfing of a supposed curtisii alba.

 

[NYEric]

could be. if it's not outrageously expensive go for it!

 

[Ozpaph]

show the leaves. that might help someone who knows the species well.

 

[Trithor]

Could definitely be, the petals are strongly curtisii and there are no features that I have seen which would indicate that it is not.

 

[PaphMadMan]

I don't think you get that dorsal without another species figuring in, lawrenceanum, maybe barbatum or callosum. I suppose anything could happen if a species is selectively bred for a dozen generations, but then I would hope the overall flower quality would be much more impressive than this.

NYEric suggested buying it if it isn't outrageously expensive, but unless I was desperate for a Paph, any Paph, I'm not sure I'd take it if it was free.

Nice flower, the staminode looks like a monkey head !

 

[SlipperKing]

I could believe curtisii album but I would like a close-up of the staminode please

 

[Stone]

Its close to superbiens alba but it has a hint of lawrence in it to me.
