ORIGIN/HABITAT: Widespread from southern India and Sri Lanka eastward through northeastern India, Burma, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, and China. The habitat extends to Hong Kong and Taiwan in the north, and in the south and east, it continues through Malaya, the Philippines, Borneo, and Indonesia. Plants are reported as far east as Samoa and Fiji. In northeastern India, this orchid grows in the subtropical mixed forests in the Lushai Hills, Khasia Hills, Jaintea Hills, and near Darjeeling at 3300-6550 ft. (1000-2000 m). In Thailand, plants are found throughout the country. They grow from near sea level to about 1000 ft. (0-300 m) on the southwestern peninsula, but in the northwestern mountains they are found at 1600-4750 ft. (480-1450 m). In the Philippines, plants grow on trees at 150-5400 ft. (40-1650 m) in many locations on Luzon, Mindoro, and Mindanao islands. In Borneo, this orchid grows in hills in lower montane forests at 1650-6550 ft. (500-2000 m). In Java, plants are found all over the island where they normally grow on the trunks of isolated trees in bright light. They are most common at 1500-3300 ft. (450-1000 m), but the marginal habitat extends from 1000-5600 ft. (300-1700 m). Two climate tables are included below, because the habitat is so extremely large and habitat elevation varies so much. One climate table represents the warmer, tropical habitat, and the other is for the cooler, more temperate part of the habitat. The two climate tables give some indication of the range of conditions to which Liparis viridiflora should adapt.
