Name: Anthurium pandurilaminum, Croat 2019
Synonyms: Anthurium bullatus hort.
Etymology: panduri = luteiform
laminus = scales, plates, shield
Origin: Ecuador
Habitat: hemiepiphytic in warm, humid tropical forests at low elevations in the Pacific Andes.
Notes: Anthurium pandurilaminum with
its arrow-shaped leaves was found by Croat, Mansell, Hannon &
Owen in Ecuador in a swamp (pers. comm. Tom
Croat: Swampy Area) at the end of the 20th century, but was not described until many years later.
The species is distinguished by its luteiform, distinctly veined leaves, which "open" light green with a very delicate texture; as they age, they become noticeably tougher and dark green.
Cultivation: Warm to intermediate conditions at around 18–27 °C, high humidity, and bright indirect light. Use a coarse, airy aroid substrate and keep it evenly slightly moist.
