Hi,

I would suggest that this is Gastrochilus puncticulatus Cavestro, a close relative to Gastrochilus obliquus. If you're interested I can send you the literature. (L'Orchidophilé 2000, V 141, pp 53-62.)

Plaese, don't call it G. dasypogon. G. Seidenfaden allready clarified this issue in 1987 (Die Orchidee, V 38, pp 179-183).
