Anthurium albidum

An Ecuadorian Anthurium described by Sodiro in 1905 and assessed as Data Deficient. We have a single wild record, from about 850 m in the wet northwestern foothills of the Andes. Almost nothing is published on its ecology, so the advice below is built from that one site's warm, humid climate.

The one record is from humid premontane forest on the northwestern Andean slope near the Carchi–Imbabura border. Its habit (epiphytic or terrestrial) is not recorded in the sources we could reach.

The single record is placed at about 850 m.
