RE: [Spam] Re: [Aroid-l] Alocasia tigrina vs zebrina

From: "D. Christopher Rogers" crogers at ecoanalysts.com> on 2006.11.22 at 21:54:21(14840) Hi Lariann, thanks for the pics. I am afraid that I am sill not able to descry which plant I have. My plant has the lovely petiole striping that is clear on your zebrina. However, the leave on my plant are far narrower and longer, similar to your Brisbane tigress, but are more triangular.

I have a page on the A. zebrina, and one on my A. tigrina hybrid, which has retained much of the characteristics of the A. tigrina superba.

Christopher Rogers wrote: Well, after the heated discussion on heaters in which I learned lots (thank you all), I thought I would ask another question, hopefully with a simple answer. How can I separate Alocasia tigrina from A. zebrina? I have a nice plant about a meter tall, no flowers, labeled A. tigrina, but looks a lot like pictures I have seen recently of A. zebrina. Any advice and literature citations would be helpful Thanks heaps! AUTOTEXTLIST \s "E-mail Signature" D. Christopher Rogers Invertebrate Ecologist/Taxonomist ((,///////////=====< EcoAnalysts, Inc.
