    Type collection: F. G. Lehmann 563, "auf dem Boden in clichten Regenwaldern bei Altaquer an den Westabhangen das Cordilleren von Paste, 1000 m.," Narino, Colombia, Mar 1881 (holotype B). Unicate, presumably. Known only from the type collection.

    S. grandifolium is closely related to S. atrovirens of Costa Bica, but its spathe is more shortly decurrent than in the latter species.
