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: Discovered originally on Seran (now Seram) in the Molucca
Islands, this plant is said to occur on the Pacific Islands from the
Moluccas to Vanuatu, but we have been unable to locate any information in
the literature giving details of habitat location and elevation other than
that reported by J. J. Smith for Mediocalcar seranicum which was found in
the central part of Seran (now Seram) at 6550-8200 ft. (2000-2500 m).
