Clonotypus: RAUH 63 791 (Coll. 14. 8. 1983) ex eodem loco. [German version:] Holotypus: RAUH 53674 [53675!] (10. 7. 1980); RAUH 63 791 (14. 8. 1983) vom gleichen Standort, im Herb. Inst. System. Bot.

Locus classicus according to protologue	Habitat et distributio: Inter Tarapoto et Yurimaguas (Dept. San Martin) in directione orientali apud 800 m.s.m. in rupibus arenosis arduis humidis una cum Phragmipedio boisseriano [Rauh 63781] et Ph. caricino [Rauh 63780] (Orchidaceae). Tantum a loco typo nota, sed hic turbas immensas formans. [German version:] Heimat und Verbreitung: Zwischen Tarapoto und Yurimaguas (NE-Peru, Dptm. San Martin) östl. der Paßhöhe, 800 m, an steilen, feuchten Sandsteinfelsen, zusammen mit den Orchideen Phragmipedium boisserianum und Ph. caricinum.
Comments	Rauh erroneously cited in the protologue as gathering number of type material «RAUH 53 674», which is in fact a Pitcairnia paniculata. But on the two type specimens HEID 700060 & 602402 the correct number «RAUH 53 675» was written on the labels. On the label of an alcohol specimen [HEID 202217] the right number was written by Rauh himself: «Pitcairnia blaßgelb 53675». The gathering date cited in the protologue is wrong. Rauh collected the new Pitcairnia species on 1980-07-08; see Entry 25499. [CNS 2017-06-20]
