Revision of Anthurium Sect. Interrupta Delannay & Croat (Araceae)

 

Xavier Delannay & Thomas B. Croat

 

ABSTRACT

Following recent molecular studies that indicated it is a distinct lineage, Anthurium Sect. Interrupta was formed out of the previously known but polyphyletic Anthurium Sect. Xialophyllium (Schott) Engl. The new section comprises six species, of which two are new. All six species are fully described. Both a dichotomous and a separate unpublished Lucid Key have been prepared. The Lucid Key to Anthurium Sect. Interrupta will be published later online.
