Remarks. The species was previously known from Selangor (Hippa 2006) and Sarawak (Hippa 2008a), Malaysia and Thung Kai and Khao Chong Botanic Gardens, Trang Province, Thailand (Hippa and Papp 2007). Some of the new specimens are difficult to distinguish from M. calcarata Hippa or M. transversa Hippa, which may indicate that all the three nominal species are conspecific.
