Maranta neubertii

Maranta neubertii is a horticultural name of the 1880s, taken up by Petersen in Flora Brasiliensis in 1890 for a plant known only in cultivation and never matched to a wild population. GBIF holds no occurrence or distribution records. It can only be grown as a generic humid-forest Maranta, and any plant sold under the name today should be treated with the same caution as the name itself.
