, from which it differs in having seasonal dormancy (vs. evergreen), broader and non-glaucous laminae (vs. narrower and slightly glaucous beneath), a speckled green ovary (vs. mostly green), a convex stigma with a depressed center (vs. 3-lobed), a sparsely hairy sterile interstice (vs. glabrous), and a thicker stipitate appendix (vs. slender, often sessile, or shortly stipitate). A comparative study of living plants, cultivated specimens, and herbarium material (including types) supports its recognition as a distinct species. The new taxon grows on rocky cliffs in dry dipterocarp and mixed deciduous forests at 350-400 m a.s.l., and it is currently known from Mukdahan and Sakon Nakhon provinces. A preliminary IUCN assessment indicates that the species is Data Deficient (DD).
