Anthurium angustilobum

A Panamanian Anthurium known only from the Río Piedras in the upper Chagres basin, at about 230–550 m. Collectors found it on bare rock and in rock crevices in full sun along the river, so it is a riverside lithophyte, not a forest-shade plant. It wants bright light, warmth, and roots that are wet but always well aerated.
