Aechmea cymosopaniculata

A Venezuelan bromeliad known from Aragua state and listed as critically endangered, possibly extinct. Almost nothing is published on its habitat; treat it like other Aechmea of the humid coastal cordillera: bright filtered light, warmth, humid air and a water-filled central cup.

Where it grows wild

Unknown in detail; Aragua's natural vegetation ranges from dry coastal scrub to humid montane forest in the Coastal Cordillera. Generalised from Aechmea of the region, likely an epiphyte or rock-dweller in humid forest.

No recorded elevations; the climate site at about 100 m is a country-level centroid, not a collecting site.
