Anthurium attenuatifolium

A little-known Panamanian Anthurium collected only in river valleys along the road from Santa Fé to Calovébora in Veraguas, at about 375–600 m. Nothing about its habit or appearance beyond the name (narrowed leaf bases) was available to us, so this profile is built from the measured climate and the genus.

Where it grows wild

All three specimens come from wet forest in river valleys (Río Dos Bocas, Río Tercero Brazo) on the Caribbean slope above Santa Fé, collected along the road. No habit notes were recorded; an epiphytic or hemi-epiphytic habit is assumed from the genus.

Recorded at 375–600 m (median 570 m).
