Anthurium conspicuum

Anthurium conspicuum is a poorly known Ecuadorian species described by Sodiro in 1907, and its type sheet at Berlin carries no usable locality. The few GBIF records filed under this name come from Guatemala, Colombia and Bolivia and are almost certainly misidentifications, so these conditions are a generic template for an Ecuadorian forest Anthurium.

Where it grows wild

Nothing reliable is recorded about its habitat. Sodiro collected mainly in western Ecuadorian forests, so the profile assumes a shaded, humid forest Anthurium.

Unknown. The measured climate comes from a fallback point at 1215 m, which is a guess rather than a collection elevation.
