- N o t e : Many collections were annotated Guzmania pleiosticha (Grisebach) Mez for a long period of time, but this material proved not to belong to the same species as the type, Fendler 1514. For all those collections Guzmama altsonii L, B. Smith becomes .the valid name. Guzmania pleiosticha and Vriesea splitgerberi are synonymous, and Fendler 1514 must be considered the type . —See Gouda 1987
