Begonia chloroneura

Begonia chloroneura is a Philippine species described by Wilkie and Sands in The New Plantsman (1999), and there are only two wild GBIF records. The one measured site is warm and humid year-round, with a wetter November–January. Care here is inferred from that climate and from other Philippine forest-floor Begonia.
