Anthurium wendlingeri

Anthurium wendlingeri is a species of aroid plant, in the genus Anthurium, found from Central to South America, from SE Nicaragua to NW Colombia.

[1] It grows in moist, montane tropical habitats as an epiphyte.

[2] A member of the section Porphyrochitonium,[3] colloquially called "strap-leaved" Anthuriums, A. wendlingeri is visually similar to A. vittariifolium or A. pendens, albeit with more spiraling, corkscrew-like spadix.

[4] Like many Anthurium, the species is somewhat variable and has some local variety within its range; the varietal horichii, described by Croat, is found in Costa Rica.

[5] The more common subspecies is A. w. wendlingeri, found across the majority of the species' range.
