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: Java, Borneo, Sumatra, Thailand, and Vietnam. In Java,
plants are found in both east and west Java, but they are quite common in
the east where they grow on the drier, more seasonal northern faces of the
mountains at 2950-5500 ft. (900-1670 m). Plants usually grow as trunk
epiphytes in fairly open situations. These plants have been found at
several locations in peninsular Thailand, while collections have been
reported from Dalat and other locations in Vietnam, but details of habitat
elevation were not given for plants from these regions. Although reported
as occurring in Borneo, specific habitat details were not given. We have
been able to find details for only var. exappendiculatum J. J. Smith in
Sumatra.
