Bolbitis vanuaensis

A very poorly recorded Bolbitis whose name points to Vanua Levu in Fiji; we have no wild records or climate for it. Grow it as a generic tropical Pacific Bolbitis: warm, shaded, humid and permanently moist, with the rhizome on rock or wood.

Nothing specific is available. Pacific Bolbitis generally creep over wet rocks and stream banks in humid lowland to lower montane rainforest.

Unknown; Fijian rainforest Bolbitis typically occur from near sea level to several hundred metres.
