Anthurium conterminum

An obscure Anthurium described by Sodiro from 'subandean forests' around Atacatzo and the Toachi–Pilatón confluence west of Quito, collected in 1903. The measured site is georeferenced very high on Atacatzo; the labels point to cooler-intermediate forest instead.

Where it grows wild

Labels say only 'in silvis subandinis' (subandean forest); IUCN lists moist montane forest. Habit is unrecorded; epiphytic is assumed from the genus.

No label elevation; the measured point sits at about 3485 m, likely above the real collection sites.
