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: Myanmar (Burma) and peninsular Thailand. Grant (1895) reported that this orchid is from the Tenasserim region where it grows on the shores of Mergui. Distribution extends southward into the Thai Peninsula where Seidenfaden (1979) reported collections from near Kopah and Muang Lan, Ranong. Specific elevations were not reported, but we assume from the description that plants grow on the shores of Mergui that these are low-elevation plants.
