Anthurium anceps

Anthurium anceps is an Ecuadorian endemic described by Sodiro in 1903 and known from very little material; its one georeferenced-by-province GBIF record is from Guayas on the lowland Pacific side. Almost nothing about its habitat is published, so these conditions are a cautious template for a western Ecuadorian forest Anthurium rather than species-specific measurements.

Where it grows wild

No habitat notes survive in the records we could reach. The only record is from Guayas province, where remaining forest ranges from seasonally dry lowland forest to wetter foothill forest; the profile assumes a shaded forest Anthurium.

Unknown. Guayas forests lie mostly below about 800 m; the measured climate comes from a single fallback point at 1215 m and should not be read as its elevation.
