Yes it does look similar, very beautiful. There's just so many out there! I hate to think what has been lost already around the world before we even had a chance to record them, see them or know of their existence.
Kd, I found a similar one that was identified to genus here. http://www.flickr.com/photos/brutamonte/9692384703/
This is an unusual one Tom15. The colour & hair covering is really interesting.
Thanks venusflytrap.
