It is a distinctive component of a relatively low-elevation, highly biodiverse montane elfin forest that has evolved in association with a particularly thin and extremely hostile substrate. Plant habit, and leaf, inflorescence, indumentum and peristome-column morphology appear superficially similar to those of the ultramaficolous montane species of Palawan, implicating an environmental basis for a syndrome of shared characteristics.

  • Flash Floods
    Information bulletin n° 2 Philippines: GLIDE n˚ FL-2009-000011-PHL 22 January 2009 Flash floods This bulletin is being issued for information only. A cold front and continuous rains from 7-12 January 2009 caused flash floods, landslides, and sea surges in large areas of the country, affecting some 329,0451 people. The Philippine National Red Cross Society (PNRCS), with support from the International Federation, has responded by undertaking assessments to identify numbers of people affected and needs, as well as to begin the delivery of relief assistance and arrange temporary shelters. The PNRCS has determined that external assistance is not required at this time, and is therefore not presently seeking funding or other assistance from donors. <view contact information> The Situation The Philippines, particularly prone to natural disasters, has been experiencing weather disturbances in recent days. The tail-end of a cold front affecting the Bicol region and eastern sections of Visayas and Mindanao from 7- 12 January 2009 triggered the occurrence of continuous rains which caused flash floods, flooding, landslides and sea surges in some areas of the country. Severely affected by the brunt of the continuous rains were the cities of Cagayan de Oro and Gingoog, and the provinces of Misamis Oriental and Northern Samar. At the same time, high tides with big waves struck in Aringay, La Union, Surigao City; Siargao Island, Bucas Grande Island and Dinagat Island in Surigao del Norte Province, Surigao del Sur, Agusan del Norte, Agusan del Sur, Compostela Valley and Davao del Norte. It is important to note that Cagayan de Oro City, Misamis Oriental and Gingoog City have not experienced any floods since 1950s till now; therefore, creating additional challenges for local coping and response capacities.
