Distribution:— The eastern Himalayas, northeastern India , Upper Myanmar and southwestern China . Notes:— Molecular studies confirmed that this taxon is better placed in a broadly defined Holcoglossum ( Xiang et al. 2012 ) . It was previously treated as Ascocentrum himalaicum , Vanda himalaica and more recently as Pendulorchis himalaica . Christenson (1987: 256) listed Kingdon-Ward 18339 (NY) as being from Myanmar , but the locality is in Manipur , India .
