Where it grows wild

The type label says only that it grew in tropical forest. The Cachabí-Alto Tambo area is wet Chocó lowland-to-foothill forest. Its habit is not recorded, so the profile treats it as a shaded forest Anthurium.

Records carry no elevations. The localities suggest roughly 100-700 m, while the one measured site sits at 1069 m.
