About

Biermannia arunachalensis is a species of orchid found in Arunachal Pradesh, India.

Where it grows

This orchid species is known to occur only in Tippi village of West Kameng district of Arunachal Pradesh in India. However it was found growing on a tree planted inside the Orchid Research Centre in Tippi hence leading to a speculation that its distribution could not be confirmed.
