ORIGIN/HABITAT: Widespread from India through Southeast Asia into southern China to as far north as Taiwan. Distribution extends through Malaya to Indonesia to as far east as New Guinea. In China, plants have been found in southern Yunnan Province growing as epiphytes and terrestrials at 1000-3300 ft. (300-1000 m). Plants are said to be rather common in Malaya where they grow as epiphytes in the lowlands in all parts of the country. On Borneo, plants have been from various types of habitats in Sabah, Sarawak, and Kalimantan. They have been collected from numerous location in Sarawak at 650-4250 ft. (200-1300 m). Comber (2001) reported collections in North Sumatra at 3000 ft. (910 m). In Java, this epiphytic orchid is common all over the island where it grows on tree trunks or covers rocks in small dry valleys in both shady and open spots. Comber (1990) reported the collection of a plant in East Java at 1700 ft. (520 m) and stated that a single clone frequently will cover a large area.
