Anthurium sect. Digitinervium

Digitinervium is a section of the genus Anthurium. It is a small, natural section consisting of plants with thick leaf blades, glandular-punctate on the lower surfaces, with well-defined basal veins, normally occurring in pairs and extending past the middle of the blade. Tertiary veins are fine, closely packed, and parallel. The section is distributed across a limited range consisting of the Andes of northwestern South America, and the mountains of Costa Rica and Panama.
The most typical specimen of this section is Anthurium ovatifolium; other examples include A. lentii, A. crassifolium, A.lingua and A. weberbaueri. Very little is known about hybridization in this section; the only known cross was of A. lentii with A. nymphiifolium, of section Calomystrium.
