has since been found on the Caribbean side of Costa Rica in forests at
3300-5100 ft. (1000-1550 m), in Panama at 2150 ft. (650 m), and
rediscovered in Colombia at 5250-6550 ft. (1600-2000 m) near Frontino in
the Department of Atioquia. It is now known to also grow at 650 ft. (200
m) near the west coast in Chocó Province and near the coast in the
vicinity of Brenaventura at an unreported elevation. In Ecuador, plants
grow in cloudforest at 2950 ft. (900 m) on the western slopes of the Andes
in El Oro Province just west of Piñas.
