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: Distributed from the Andaman Islands through Burma (now
Myanmar), Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Peninsular Malaysia, Sumatra,
Mentawai, Bangka, Java, Maluku, and Borneo. This orchid has been collected
in most regions of Thailand from the northwest mountains to peninsular
Thailand, but specific habitat details were not given. Plants have been
found at several locations in Laos and Cambodia and at numerous locations
in Vietnam, but habitat elevations for these locations were not given. In
Malaya, plants are reported to be common in the lowlands in the southern
part of the country. In Sumatra, plants are not very common but have been
collected from Muara Tebu in Jambi and from the Mentawai Islands (just off
the west coast) as well as from Bangka Island (just off the east coast),
with plants almost always found in the low foothills. On Java, plans are
said to be common in the western part of the island where it grows in the
foothills at 500-1300 ft. (150-400 m). On Borneo, plants are found in
Brunei, Kalimanan, Sabah, and Sarawak where they grow in lowland hill and
stream-side forest from near sea level to 2950 ft. (900 m).
