Re: [Aroid-l] Asian epiphytes

From: "Peter Boyce" <botanist at malesiana.com> on 2007.02.08 at 22:22:12(15258) Michael Here in Sarawak Scindapsus crassipes, S. geniculatus. S. beccarii and a couple of yet-to-be-described spp. are obligate primary epiphytes; all form fans of foliage that function as litter-traps. In S. geniculatus there is extensive formation of short, erect, pointed roots into the accumulated litter in the same manner as happens in many Anthurium.
