Comments:
- This new species was discovered growing terrestrially on sandy soil partially shaded, which is a forest to shruby semideciduous vegetation in the transition between Atlantic Forest and “Caatinga” biomes, about 70 km from the ocean. The habitat of Cryptanthus viridovinosus is severely affected by sand extraction that completely destroy the vegetation.
