This text is copyrighted by the Bakers and may not be reproduced without permission.

ORIGIN/HABITAT: The Philippine Islands. Found on the Island of Negros and smaller islands in the Visayan Sea. Lance Birk (1983) reported that it grows at 1070-1520 m (3500-5000 ft.). A recently published work by and Cootes (1999), however, reported this orchid is endemic to Mindanao Island where it grows as an apiphyte at 4100-4450 ft. (1250-1350 m).
