In taxonomic revision of section Pachyneurium Schott in Anthurium Schott (Araceae), the new species A. loretense Croat was mistakenly published without a Latin diagnosis. According to Article 32.1(d) of the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (McNeill, 2006), the name was invalid. A diagnosis is provided herein to validate A. lorentense.
