Helicodiceros muscivorus ??

From: Baumfarn Webmaster <webmaster at baumfarn.at> on 2007.02.25 at 16:01:20(15347) Hi, I bought the eBay offer off Heli mu: http://www.baumfarn.at/img_tmp/eBay%20Heli%20mu%20small%200001.jpg I thought to get another Heli-mu beside the one I already have. But it doesn't look like my other. It don't have the any pattern neither on the peduncle. I ask the seller afterwards how it was grown and he told me in polytunnel to keep the temperatures above 5 °C. Which is also not necessary. I doubt what I realy bought .... it's definitely look like an arum, but .... Helicodicerus? +More What do you think? greetings Peter -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- treeferns & aroids: http://www.baumfarn.at/treefern (http://www.baumfarn.at) --------------------------------------------------- Amorphophallus network: http://www.amorphophallus.baumfarn.at/ _______________________________________________ Aroid-l mailing list Aroid-l@gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l

From: Geoffrey Kibby <fieldmycol at yahoo.co.uk> on 2007.02.25 at 18:25:11(15348) Regarding your supposed Helicodiceros it could be I suppose but the plant is still rather young and the leaves look immature. I have to say that I agree with you however that I have strong doubts, I would have thought that the pattern on the petiole would be showing by now. A couple more weeks should reveal all when the next leaves emerge.

Assuming that I has a tuber, it might be an Arisaema or Arum. I doubt that it is an Arisarum. Good luck! Christopher +More D.

The leaves are much more elongate and apically acute. D. Christopher Rogers +More Invertebrate Ecologist/Taxonomist ((,///////////=====< EcoAnalysts, Inc.
