ORIGIN/HABITAT: Peninsular Malaysia, Sumatra, Borneo, the Philippines, Java, New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, and Australia. In Malaya, plants are found mostly in the southern lowlands on old mangrove and near rivers. In Borneo it is found in Kalimantan and Sabah in lowland forests. In the Philippines it grows on the islands Leyte, Luzon, and Bohol at about 200 ft. (60 m). In Java, plants are found only in the west in the vicinity of Mt. Salak at about 3950 ft. (1200 m). In Papua New Guinea, plants have been noted in Central Province, Gulf Province, and Madang Province. O'Byrne (1994) reported that this orchid is common in coastal forests and rainforests of Papua New Guinea at 150-1650 ft. (50-500 m) and that plants grow on the trunks and large branches of trees in bright scattered shade, often in rather exposed situations. Plants are also reported in Irian Jaya.
