Aeschynanthus suborbiculatus

A New Guinea Aeschynanthus described by S. Moore in 1916 and known from very few old collections. GBIF has no wild records, so the conditions here come from a lowland stand-in point and the usual habits of epiphytic Aeschynanthus. Treat everything as low confidence.

Unknown. The stand-in point is at about 170 m, but the original collection may have been montane.
