Distribution : Malesia to W. Pacific.

Remarks : Photo taken at the 12th Shah Alam Orchid Festival held from 27/8/04-31/8/04. The species was brought by Indonesian delegates. RHS still treats this as synonym of Dendrobium macrophyllum A.Rich. in J.C.S.Dumont d’Urville, Voy. Astrolabe 2: 22 (1834). The flower of this species is much smaller in size compared to standard Dendrobium macrophyllum.
