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: Myanmar (Burma), Taiwan, and the Philippines, with the plants formerly known as Liparis rizalensis Ames found in Taiwan and the Philippines. In Taiwan, this epiphytic orchid is known only from the low-lying Hengchun Peninsula at the south end of the island. In the Philippines, plants have been found in the provinces of Quezon and Rizal on Luzon at about 1000 ft. (300 m). Although reported originally as coming from Burma, Grant (1895) reported that he had not seen a specimen, and we have found nothing in modern literature that indicates its occurrence in that area.
