Coelogyne dentifera

A rarely recorded Coelogyne endemic to Sumatra, known from a single record. The measured climate is hot and wet all year, but the record's position looks like a collection locality rather than the true habitat, so treat it as a warm-to-intermediate epiphyte with constant moisture.

Where it grows wild

Sumatran forest; most Sumatran Coelogyne are epiphytes of hill and lower montane forest. No species-specific habitat notes were available.

Unknown; the single record lies at sea level near Padang, which is likely a locality label rather than the growing site.
