G. Warocqué", in whose garden it flowered, producing the type specimen.[6] Distribution and habitatSarcanthopsis warocqueana grows from rocks on the coast, just above the water line to the branches of trees in rainforest at {{cvt|1,000|m|ft|sigfig=2}} above sea level. It is found in eastern New Guinea and nearby islands. A single juvenile plant has been observed on Moa Island, Queensland.[1][2][4][5]References1. ^1 2 3 4 {{WCSP |184647 |Sarcanthopsis warocqueana}} {{Taxonbar|from=Q15496801}}2. ^1 2 {{cite book|last1=Jones|first1=David L.|title=A complete guide to native orchids of Australia including the island territories|date=2006|publisher=New Holland|location=Frenchs Forest, N.S.W.|isbn=1877069124|page=446}} 3. ^{{cite web |title=Sarcanthopsis warocqueana |url=https://orchids.naturalis.nl/linnaeus_ng/app/views/species/taxon.php?id=17506&epi=25 |publisher=Flora Malesiana: Orchids of New Guinea |accessdate=2 January 2019}} 4. ^1 {{cite web |title=Sarcanthopsis praealta |url=http://www.orchidsnewguinea.com/orchid-information/species/speciescode/915 |publisher=Orchids of New Guinea |accessdate=2 January 2019}} 5. ^1 {{cite web |title=Sarcanthopsis warocqueana |url=https://botany.cz/cs/sarcanthopsis-warocqueana/ |publisher=Botany.cz |accessdate=2 January 2019}} 6. ^1 {{cite book |last1=Linden |first1=Jean Jules |last2=Linden |first2=Lucien |last3=Rodigas |first3=Émile |last4=Rolfe |first4=Robert Allen |title=Lindenia: Iconography of Orchids |date=1891 |publisher=Eugene Vanderhaeghen |location=Ghent |pages=17–18 |url=https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/item/113456#page/111/mode/1up |accessdate=3 January 2019}} 6 : Aeridinae|Epiphytic orchids|Endemic orchids of Australia|Orchids of New Guinea|Orchids of Queensland|Plants described in 1891 |
