Spathiphyllum uxpanapense

A peace lily described by Matuda from the Uxpanapa region of the southern Veracruz–Oaxaca lowlands, Mexico. Specimen labels place it in primary tall evergreen rainforest, often on limestone outcrops and in damp rock hollows. Little else is published; care is built from the labels, the measured climate and the genus.
