Anthurium myosurus

Known only from Sodiro's 1904 collection at Paramba in Imbabura, where the Mira valley drops from the Andes toward the Chocó lowlands. Nothing is published on its habitat beyond that. Grow it warm and humid, like other foothill Anthurium of north-western Ecuador.

Where it grows wild

Paramba lies in the lower Mira valley, where foothill wet forest meets drier valley vegetation. Growth form is unrecorded; epiphytic is assumed from the genus.

No label elevation; the measured point is at about 700 m.
