Dear Rashida, D. mastersii seems not to exist. So it must be wrong.
D. fimbriatum has a lip with delicate fimbriate margin. D. crysotoxum is another species with dark brown eye with slightly fimbriate margin though. D. densiflorum has a compact druping raceme. So I guess it's same as D. chrysanthum. - regards, Swapna.
