Coelogyne ambangensis

A small Sulawesi orchid, described in Dendrochilum and moved to Coelogyne in 2021, named after Mount Ambang in North Sulawesi. Almost nothing about its habitat is published, so treat it as a cool-to-intermediate montane epiphyte like its relatives.

Where it grows wild

No habitat notes found. The name points to Mount Ambang, a volcanic massif in North Sulawesi, and related Dendrochilum-type species grow as epiphytes in mossy submontane and montane forest.

No recorded elevations. Inferred to be submontane or montane, roughly 1000–1800 m, from the type locality. The 495 m climate site is a placeholder.
