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: New Guinea. This orchid was first discovered in southern Dutch New Guinea (now Irian Jaya) along the Lorentz (Noord) River. It has since been found in northern Irian Jaya near Hollandia (now Jayapura) where plants were growing in a gully on mossy rocks or were hanging out of reach on steep rock walls. Collections were also reported in German New Guinea (now northern Papua New Guinea) somewhat south of Madang in forests near the Djamu Gorge at 1300 ft. (400 m) and on trees in forests near Toliba at 1000 ft. (300 m).
