Masdevallia fuchsii
Masdevallia fuchsii is from Peru and belongs to the Saltatrices section of the genus, plants whose flowers are tubular and have "bellies" and hairs on the insides of the flowers. I have several plants of this species and this plant's flowers are more yellow than the others. The plant is 10cm tall and the flowers 4cm.

Masdevallia fuchsii
Here's another species in the Saltatrices group, i.e., tubular flowers with a "belly" and hairy glands on the inside of the tube. This species is from Ecuador and is a miniature, only 10 cm tall, with flowers that measure 4 cm each way. With its bright colored flowers, spreading tails and sweet scent, it is a favorite of mine.
