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: Sikkim, Bengal, Thailand, Laos, Malaya, Sumatra, Borneo,
and the Philippine Islands. The type specimen was collected from Lahat
near Palembang in southern Sumatra at about 150 ft. (50 m). We found
specific habitat information for two habitat locations. One habitat near
Satun, in southern peninsular Thailand, is close to the Malayan border.
The Philippine collection occurred in Zambales Province on Luzon Island,
where plants grow on tree trunks in mossy forests at 1300 ft. (400 m).
Holttum (1964) thought that this plant might be found in the Malayan State
of Kedah across the border from the known habitat in Thailand.
Wood & Cribb (1994) reported that the Borneo habitat is unknown, but the
plant is found in Kalamantan and Sarawak. We found no habitat information
for any of the other reported collection areas.
