It is found in Madagascar, Comoros, Réunion, Mauritius and Seychelles.[3] It also has been introduced to Kauai island (Hawaiʻi).[1]
Pollinator of this plant is the wasp Nigeriella avicola Wiebes.[4]
On Kauai island, Port Jackson fig wasps (Pleistodontes imperialis) are able to do the job as substitute pollinators.[1]
