It grows in the understory, on the edges of the forest, or in forest fragments. In the vicinity, + +Anthurium tiswatl + +may be found in the municipalities of Atlahuilco, Ixtaczoquitlán, Los Reyes, Magdalena, Omealca, Orizaba, San Andrés Tenejapan and Zongolica. All specimens with inflorescences and infructescence were collected in April. + + + + +Eponymy: +—This species is named for the local name as it is known in its +type +locality, named as such because of its morphological traits and habitat. The term +“tiswatl +” is the local, central +Veracruz +variant pronunciation of “teswatl”, a plant name documented in sources from the mid-16th century (e.g., +Hernández 1959 +) and widely used in Nahuatl-speaking communities in the northeastern Sierra de +Puebla +for several +Araceae +and +Melastomataceae +alike. An explanation for the local use of the term +“tiswatl +” for an + +Anthurium + +might be related to the etymology of this term: ti- ‘rock’ or ‘stone’ and iswatl ‘broad leaf’ such as that found in maize plants and many other monocots. The + +Anthurium + +here described is broad-leafed and is often found in rocky soil, hence the incorporated element ti-. + + + + +Preliminary conservation status: +—Applying the IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria and considering the area where the two populations of + +Anthurium tiswatl + +were found, in an area of about +2 km +2 +and on private property, with fragments of cleared forest, this species could be considered as Critically Endangered ([CR B2ab(ii,iii,iv,v)]) ( +IUCN 2012 +), but further studies are needed, since the species could be found in a larger area in the central region of +Veracruz +. + + + + + +Additional specimen examined ( +paratype +) + +:— +MEXICO +. +Veracruz +: Mun.
