Entry comment: The protologue of Pitcairnia pomacochae indicates "1200 m" as elevation. This is not correct and does not fit the locality in protologue "unterhalb der Lagune des kleinen Ortes Pomacocha(s) {below the laguna of the small village Pomacocha(s)}". The laguna of Pomacochas has an elevation of ca. 2300 msm. [CNS 2012-08-15]
Taxon set by Christof Nikolaus Schröder (CNS) according to fieldbook, protologue and Holotype specimen in herbarium HEID.
