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: Taiwan, the Ryukyu Islands, the Philippines. On Taiwan,
this orchid is found at low elevations in broad-leaved forests throughout
the island. Although reported as occurring in the Philippines, because of
the rather confusing synonymy, we are uncertain as to whether or not the
plants described as originating in the Philippines were actually
Staurochilus luchuensis or Staurochilus ionosma (Lindley) Schlechter, the
plant with which it was considered at one time to be synonymous.
