ORIGIN/HABITAT: Widespread from northeast India through Burma, Thailand, Malaya, Sumatra, Java, and Borneo. In Java, this orchid may still be found but is not common in Central and West Java where it grows on the slopes of mountains facing the south coast at 150-3300 ft. (50-1000 m). Plants usually are epiphytic, but they may be found growing on rocks or tree roots on steep hillsides. In Burma the plants grow at low elevations on swampy islands at the mouth of the Irrawaddy River. Here it prefers the dense, humid shade of mango trees protected from drying winds, but is exposed to full sun during the dormant period. Dew is the primary source of moisture during the dry season. Phalaenopsis cornu-cervi is found through Thailand from the northern mountains through Peninsular Thailand with collections reported from 650-2450 ft. (200-750 m). Collections have been made in Malaya in the states of Kedah, Pahang, Perak, Selangor, and Negeri Sembilan. In India it grows in the jungle with Dendrobium aggregatum. In Indonesia it is found on trees on limestone hills, often intermixed with Phalaenopsis maculata. It grows near Phalaenopsis violacea in Malaya but prefers exposed locations with at least a short rest.
