Where it grows wild

A twining epiphytic climber of lowland evergreen forest, rooting into bark and scrambling over trees and rocks; the habitat detail is inferred from the genus and the record sites, not from a published field account.

Measured sites lie between about 6 and 190 m; few records carry an elevation.
