The complex has a widespread distribution; Guangdong, Hainan, and southern Yunnan in China, mainland Southeast Asia, and western and central Malesia. Typical leaves are arrow- or large shield-shaped, elongated and pointed at the tip -- in contrast to the broader, heart-shaped, wavy-edged leaves of the 'Watsoniana' form within the same complex.
