Product information "Heliamphora electrum"
Heliamphora electrum is a new species described in 2024. It occurs in the Sierra La Lema, among others on the Venamo Tepui and Cerro Uei at relatively low altitudes of 1100 to 1400 metres ASL.
It is characterised by bristles in two size classes, as is also known for Heliamphora minor var. pilosa and Heliamphora ionasi. The larger hairs tend to be yellowish in colour, while the smaller hairs have a whitish sheen. The epithet "electrum" refers to the naturally occurring alloy of gold and silver to reflect the play of colours.
