Dear Pete, Harry:

Yes, I have commented on it. I said that I thought it was Philodendron subgen. Pteromischum and still dobelieve it is that despite Mike Grayum’s belief that it might not be. Ihave seen material exactly like this. No name, of course. Many of thesebuggers are new and you could never name one without flowers.

Hi Harry, has Tom commented on it? It's definitely NOThederaceum/scandens/micans, which have a very short petiolar sheath and anotherwise terete petiole; the venation is wrong for Monstera

I have had another person send me a noteoff list saying the same thing. I haven't located a list of Philos in thesubgenus yet but it helps.

Steve, I'm pretty sure this is nothederaceum or not like any of the many clones I have had. I haven't had anywith a petiole like this one.

Michael, these are all the same plantalthough the first picture does look very much like a Monstera the rest of theplant doesn't look like any I have seen.

Thanks for the id's Jon and Steve. Iforgot that folder existed.

Harry,

This looks to be a Philodendron in subgen. Pteromischum. THE expert onthis group is Missouri'sMike Grayum.

Cheers

This plant is being passed around the dart frog hobby sinceit makes such a nice small aroid to grow in terrariums. It was supposedlycollected in Panamabut I have no other info other than that. If someone had told me it was from Asia I would say it was a species of Pothos. Any ideas onthe id?
