Vriesea parvula

A small Vriesea described by Rauh from south-eastern Brazil, known from very few collections and with no georeferenced wild records in GBIF. Treat it as a warm Atlantic Forest bromeliad of the Minas Gerais / Espirito Santo interior with a marked dry winter; everything beyond that is inferred from the genus.
