Orchids have one very strange habit. It depends on chance how much time is needed for a flower to get pollinated. Some can be pollinated on first day whereas some takes long time and hence the plant put in all resources to keep the flowers alive and active for long period. Long period can go sometime to longer than one month as per my observation in other genus. In habenaria it can go upto 2-4 weeks. But yes the flower is not fully open and as it also seems deformed, it cant be confirmed. With length of spur and the stigmatic lobes, i cant think of anything else than longicorniculata. Pankaj
