Where it grows wild

Collected in forest on a riverbank in the Gauttier (Gautier) Mountains, a coastal range in northern Papua; presumably an epiphytic or scrambling twiner in wet montane forest.

Unknown; the record is georeferenced to the range at about 2,100 m, but the Gauttier Mountains run from near sea level to about 2,200 m and the riverbank collection may be well below the summit ridge.
