This lovely ginger was flowering along the Langanan Falls Track of Poring Hot Springs.
There are app. 25 species of Rhododendrons in Kinabalu NP. My favourite was the Low's Rhododendron with its clusters of large yellow flowers. This one was flowering about 10m beyond the gate of the summit track.
More Rhododendrons:
This melastome was abundant near the Kinabalu Park headquarters. The fruits attracted many birds just as they do in the new world tropics.
There were three species of fish in the creek near the headquarters. They were fairly easy to see. All had barbules around the mouth.
