Etymology: This species is named in honor of the late Harry E. Luther. He was always very helpful with doubtful named plants and with discussing new species. We are very thankful for all Harry’s contributions to “Brom-L Casus Pro Diagnosi” at the.florapix.nl (bromeliad) Gallery. Harry was a friend and Bromeliad specialist we all are going to miss so much.
