The origin/habitat information below is supplied courtesy of Charles and Margaret Baker
The following information is based on the name of the plant provided by the donor, and assumes that the name is correct. If the plant has been misidentified, then the following information may not be correct.
This text is copyrighted by the Bakers and may not be reproduced without permission.
ORIGIN/HABITAT: D. masarangense subsp masarangense is distributed over a
wide area from Sulawesi to Fiji, including many provinces in New Guinea,
New Britain Island, Bougainville, Guadalcanal in the Solomon Islands,
Vanuatu, New Caledonia, and Viti Levu in Fiji. Plants usually grow on
trees in lowland forests at 980-3950 ft. (300-1200 m).
D. masarangense subsp. theionanthum var. theionanthum grows in the
mountains throughout New Guinea. The habitat includes the Vogelkop
Peninsula, Mt. Jaya (Mt. Carstensz), Mt. Doorman, and Mt. Wilhelmina in
Irian Jaya (western New Guinea), most provinces of Papua, and Goodenough
Island. Plants usually grow on the twigs of trees and shrubs or among
young secondary regrowth. They are found on steep, exposed ridges and
summits where light is high and air movement is strong. Habitat extends
from 2600-10,660 ft. (800-3250 m), but plants usually grow above 4900 ft.
(1500 m), and most collections are made at 6550-8200 ft. (2000-2500 m).
D. masarangense subsp theionanthum var. chlorinum grows only in Irian Jaya
(western New Guinea) near Mt. Jaya (Mt. Carstensz) at about 3950 ft. (1200
m).
