Ficus albipila, Tabalong, Meratus Mts, South Kalimantan

Ficus albipila growing in an old rubber garden  at Jaro , Tabalong district at the northern end of the Meratus Mountain range in south Kalimantan.

The Meratus Mountains are a 200km long outcrop of  limestone karst in one of the driest areas of Borneo with a distinctively different flora and fauna.

Because of the difficulties of  exploring forested  mountains formed of sharp limestone rocks, both botanically and zoologically, the Meratus Mountains are largely unexplored.
