Philodendron longilobatum

A Philodendron from the Atlantic Forest of south-eastern Brazil, described by Sakuragui in 2012. It is known from only a handful of wild records. No details of its habit or ecology were found in reachable sources, so this profile rests on the two measured sites, which are warm, with wet summers and drier winters, and on the typical habits of Atlantic Forest Philodendron.

Where it grows wild

Its habitat is undocumented here. Most Atlantic Forest Philodendron species are hemiepiphytic climbers or rock-dwellers in humid forest.

Few records carry an elevation. The two climate sites were corrected to about 15 m and 600 m.
