Where it grows wild

The single usable record is from low-lying northwestern Madagascar (Sambirano region). Aerangis are typically twig and trunk epiphytes in shaded, humid forest; this is inferred from the genus.

The one climate site is near sea level (about 12 m); the true elevation range is unknown.
