Ficus asperiuscula

Ficus asperiuscula is a little-documented fig from Java and Sumatra, first described in 1846 from plants raised in the Berlin botanic garden. Nothing specific about its habit was found, so these targets come from the measured climate and general Ficus of Malesian hill forest.

Where it grows wild

No habitat description was found. The cool measured nights suggest hill or lower montane forest in Java and Sumatra; the targets assume a small tree or shrub of forest edges and gaps.

Few records carry an elevation.
