Guzmania teucamae

A Panamanian Guzmania described by Luther and Norton in 2007 and known from a single wild record in the highlands of Veraguas at about 880 m. Nothing on its habitat is published in sources reachable here; the profile is built from that site's climate and from the needs of tank-forming Guzmania in Panama's wet premontane forest.

Where it grows wild

Wet premontane forest of central Panama's Cordillera Central, presumably as a tank epiphyte on mossy trunks and branches in shade.

The one record sits at about 878 m terrain height; no elevation was recorded on the specimen.
