Areas near Bangladesh (eastern, like Assam) will be HIGHLY preferred as Sylhet in Bangladesh is the type locality of the same. But I need from other parts too. It is an epiphytic orchid, very common and flowers before the rains usually till the mid of the season. Please find attached a plate of the same to help you in identification. I would be grateful and your help will be acknowledged. Regards Pankaj -- *********************************************** "TAXONOMISTS GETTING EXTINCT AND SPECIES DATA DEFICIENT !!"
