Re: Anthurium coriaceum vs. A. harisii

Dear Christopher,

The species are very different, can be distinguished by the following characters:
 
A. coriaceum - robust plant; petiole rounded the times obtusely flat; blade coriaceous; lateral veins obscure in living plant; spathe coriaceous generally elliptical.
A. harrisii - delicate plant; petiole U-shaped with carina at the margins; blade chartaceous or membranaceous; lateral veins visible in the living plant; spathe membranaceous lanceolate.
Both are common in Brazil.
Marcus
