Plant small to medium in size, epiphytic, caespitose, 6.4–10.2 cm tall; roots slender, filiform 0.5–0.6 mm in diameter. Ramicauls sub-erect, weak, slender, horizontal, 3.8–7.5 cm long, enclosed by 6–10 closely fitting, microscopically ciliate-scabrous long acuminate lepanthiform sheaths with narrowly dilated, acuminate ostia. Leaves with brown edges, elliptic, thinly coriaceous, long acuminate, the apex emarginate with an abaxial apiculum in the middle, 1–8 × 0.5–2.0 cm, the base obtuse, contracted into a petiole 4.3–7.0 mm long. Inflorescence a congested, distichous, successively manyflowered, 7–11, raceme up to 1.6 cm long, including the peduncle, held appressed to the adaxial surface of the leaf by a filiform, terete peduncle, 3.4–7.8 cm long, borne near the apex of the ramicaul; floral bracts conical, acuminate 0.7–1.0 mm long; pedicels terete, 1.4–1.7 mm long. Ovary terete, costate, curved up, 1.9 mm long. Flowers with sepals pale green-brown; petals brownish yellow; lip burgundy in the center brownish-yellow in the borders, ovary red. Dorsal sepal suborbicular, convex, acute, 3-veined, 2.35 × 2.49 mm, connate to the lateral sepals for 0.6 mm. Lateral sepals ovate, oblique, acute, 2-veined, 1.9 × 1.4 mm, connate for 1.2 mm. Petals microscopically pubescent, transversely bilobed, 3.6 × 1.3 mm, with a filiform lateral midlobe, 1 mm long; the upper lobe subquadrate, sharply truncate, with a pronounced and acuminate inner corner, the upper edge praemorse; the lower lobe sub-triangular, oblique, acute. Lip minutely pubescent, bilaminate, the blades wide, membranaceous, thin, adherent medially over the column, sub-lunate with rounded ends, minutely ciliate, 2.8 × 1.4 mm, supported by short, thin cuneate connectives, from the base, the body wide, concave, adnate to the base of the column, the sinus obtuse, with a reduced, ovate, bifid, ciliate appendix. Column urceolate, flattened, 1.5–2.5 mm long, the anther dorsal and stigma ventral, the stigmatic cavity wide and expanded towards the base, bilobulate. Anther cap cordate, cucullate, 0.4 mm wide. Pollinia yellow, two, pyriform, 0.5 mm long.
