New aroid in western Australia?
|
From: Steve Marak <samarak at gizmoworks.com> on 2011.01.21 at 00:07:12(21773)
I've seen several web hits today on this topic, all of which seem to wind
up at the same text. The articles all call the plant an "arum lily", don't
give a genus or other botanical information, say that it was found in the
Kimberly region by Matthew Barrett (Perth's Kings Park & Botanic Garden)
along with other various new species in that remote area, and that the
infloresence smells of burnt electrical wire.
Here's a representative link:
http://www.perthnow.com.au/news/western-australia/new-lily-found-in-kimberley-smells-like-burnt-electrics/story-e6frg14u-1225991862095
The picture is *an* aroid, but no idea if it's that aroid; one of the
other articles showed a picture of Zantedeschia aethiopica with the same
text.
Anyone happen to know more about this? I dug through the KP&BG web site a
bit but didn't find anything.

Most likely a Typhonium , I got a few tubers of a much larger sp.from the Northern Territory
a few years ago .
They can be very difficult to keep alive . Probably be 10 years before we got a name for it .
Alistair Hay is in Columbia at the moment , he might have a comment to make on it later .

Steve,
I thought it looked sort of Typhoium like and found this later
http://www.kimberleypage.com.au/2011/01/kununurra-new-arum-lily-species-found/
and if you Google "New Typhonium Species in Northern
Australia' you'll get descriptions of T taylori, T. jonesii and T
mirabile. There's at least 20 Typhonium species in Australia and new
ones pop up fairly regularly.
The one you found dates back to May, 2010 if not earlier.
Best Jim W.

Steve,
Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
It appears to be an aroid that I saw in Kununurra in 1987 when I worked
there.it appeared to be a Typhonium.There were some new species
described at the time by Alistair Hay.It may already be described.It
grew in thje loamy soil and only appeared when the wet arrived.It grew
with a native Tacca which the aboriginal people used as a bush
potato.They had no recorded use of the Typhonium.

May not be too long in waiting. “things” are afoot with Aussie “Typhonium”, with a paper just published that convincingly shows the Australian ones not to belong to Typhonium, plus Lazarum mirabile has recently been investiagated molecularly, plus Matthew Barrett is very active.

Hello,
It looks like a species of Sauromatum, but no idea what species.

A few years ago (2004) a person in OZ sent me some pics of Typhonium he had
collected way up north near Darwin where he lived, but after awhile he
seemed to fall of the face of the Earth. I believe he had communicated with
a few of the senior (in knowledge, not years) members of the aroid-l or at
least I had suggested he do that....do not know if he ever did to be honest.
Anyway, I thought since I have the pics I would share them. On was IDed has
T. flagelliforme at the time by I believe Wilbert, but again it has been
many years....some cute little fellas anyway. I hope they attach to the
message OK,
Dan
