Anthurium barbourii

A Peruvian Anthurium known from lower montane cloud forest in the Serranía de Bagua, about 12–18 km east of La Peca in Amazonas, at about 1900 m. The climate is mild, with cool nights and a drier spell from May to October that cloud cover probably offsets. Its habit is not recorded in anything we could reach.
