Jumellea cyrtoceras, perhaps?
From Jay's site:
Found E Madagascar as a small sized epiphyte with an erect, cylindrical
stem carrying many, leathery, ligulate leaves that blooms on an axillary,
short, single flowered inflorescence enveloped basally by a few sheaths
and obtuse bract.

I previously posted a pic of this plant & it was named Angraecum
sedifolium
& Paul Simon noticed the error.
I agree with him that it looks like a Jumellea. Should be easy to find.
There are so many flowers that look the
same.
I have attached a page (made in MS Word 2007 & change to '97) some info &
pics of plant & closeup of flower .
Any guesses or help would me much appreciated.
Cheers Wendy
