Dendrobium annae

Dendrobium annae is an epiphytic orchid described by J.J. Smith in Die Orchideen von Java (1905), known from Java and Sumatra. Almost nothing is published on its habitat; these conditions are based on its single measured site in submontane Sumatra and on general knowledge of Malesian epiphytic Dendrobium.
