1984 7(1) 7-8 Dan H. Nicholson Amorphophallus konjac vs A. rivieri (Araceae)
This article available FREE to IAS Members with a PERSONAL login. LOGIN, REGISTER or JOIN
ABSTRACT: A quick scan of the literature suggested that A. rivieri was correct, cf. Fanny Lee Phillips (Aroideana 3: 56. 1980). I began to wonder why Koyama (in Ohwi, Flora of Japan, 255. 1965) accepted A. konjac. To my astonishment, I found that it is correct. Even more astonishing, I found that I had prepared notes on the problem in 1963 (while a student at the Bailey Hortorium, Cornell University), including copies of critical papers from Dr. George S. Bunting. At the risk of repeating something possibly published elsewhere, I report my findings in a historial sequence.

This article available FREE to IAS Members with a PERSONAL login. LOGIN, REGISTER or JOIN

This article presents information concerning inheritance of foliar variegation from three Aglaonema species. Aglaonema commutatum Schott var. picturatum 'Treubii,' A. crispum (Hort. Pitcher & Manda) Nicols. 'Chartreuse Halo'; and A. nitidum (Jack) Kunth 'Curtisii' were thecultivars used in this study.

1984 7(1) 14-17 Dr. Donald C. Huttleston The North American species of Arisaema (Araceae)-"Jack-in-the-Pulpit" (Buy)
ABSTRACT: The North American "Jacks-in-thePulpits" are so variable as to have caused a great deal of controversy and confusion. Six specific and numerous subspecific epithets have been applied to them. Graduate research at Cornell between 1946 and 1950 and extensive observations since have lead me to the conclusion that there is but one species, Arisaema triphyllum (L.) Schott, with four subspecific populations. Rather widespread hybrid swarms between these populations tend to confuse their separations. A key to the subspecific categories and a discussion of them follows.

1984 7(1) 18-20 Thomas B. Croat Aroid profile no. 9 Philodendron rugosum Bogner & Bunting
This article available FREE to IAS Members with a PERSONAL login. LOGIN, REGISTER or JOIN
ABSTRACT: Philodendron rugosum Bogner & Bunting, Willdenowia 13: 183-185. 1983. a member of section O/igospermum, is known only from Ecuador in a premontane rain forest life zone in the Province of Pastaza at elevations of 1,000 to 1,700 meters.

Others have referred to this feature as "pigskin."

1984 7(1) 21-22 David Burnett Don't give in to the fungus
This article available FREE to IAS Members with a PERSONAL login. LOGIN, REGISTER or JOIN
ABSTRACT: In Aroideana 6 (2):57 Queries, Joe Wright discusses the problems of fungus infection in an interesting article. However, there is one comment with which I must take exception. "Plants that succumb to Fusarium should be destroyed ... ." I think that advice, is unnecessarily defeatist.

1984 7(2) 42-52 Dr. R. Frank Brown The new aglaonemas of Thailand (Buy)
ABSTRACT: In 1979, after returning to Manila from an exhaustive search on the island of Palawan, I visited the garden of Dr. Romeo Gutierrez, president of the Philippine Horticultural Society. Dr. Gutierrez maintains one of the world's leading collections of Aglaonemas, and on this occasion, he proudly displayed a newly discovered species from Thailand. It was, to put it mildly, the most beautiful Aglaonema I had ever seen. I Although he generously cut it and gave me the top, my collector's instinct had become so aroused, that I cancelled my planned search on the Philippine island of Samar, and instead, flew to Bangkok.

1984 7(3) 68-162 David Burnett The cultivated alocasia (Buy Back Issue)
ABSTRACT: Given that A/ocasia has been an enduring ornamental foliage favorite for over 150 years, it is surprising that there has never been a horticultural text on the genus. It is time there was such a publication. What follows is simply the informed opinion of one collector. It is not a taxonomic treatise; rather it is a publication written by a collector for the benefit of other collectors. It pretends to be nothing else.
