I bought this about one year ago as paphio Roger Sander ( glaucophyllum var. Moquettianum x Godefroyae var. Leucochilum) but as you can see it's a wrong label.
Anyone can help me to identificate it?

The label doesn't look wrong to me. The flower shows exactly what I would expect from this cross.
 
Thanks. I'm not really sure, cause all pictures I have found on web, flower has pouch near white color, sometimes with red spots. Maybe mine is just a bad clone...

Doesn't look too far off for a cochlopetalum x brachypetalum cross. I wouldn't expect the leuchochilum white lip to come through all the time, though I wouldn't be surprised if those were the pictures vendors choose to show off. Something about the pouch doesn't look right though. Could we see a profile shot?

It is.

Seeing the flower in profile, I have to wonder about that pouch geometry. Looks like a grandson of roth chin to me. I don't see how that comes from a purely cochlo/brachy family history.
 
Not far off, anyway.

The narrow pouch resembles me of concolor, though, and the edge is peculiar.
