Help needed for identification of orchid

Can anyone provide the name and general care for the following orchid? Thx in advance

It looks like it could be some sort of lady slipper with the pouch broken off. It would be easier to tell with some clear photos of the foliage. I can't think of any genera with four-petaled flowers besides the slippers. Appears to have pseudobulbs for foliage though so I'm stumped.

Well, it has Pseudo-bulbs... So that rules out the sliipers(paphs, phrags)
 
Kinda looks like a Bulbophyllium of some kind.....
 
i'd also second the bulbophyllum. looks similar to one that i have at home but i dont remember the species/hybrid name.
