Re: [Aroid-l] Monstera names

From: "D. Christopher Rogers" <branchiopod at gmail.com> on 2019.12.13 at 14:29:53(24287) Hiyer! Madison, in his revision of the genus (1977) lists Monstera borsigiana Engler, 1879 as a junior synonym of M. deliciosa Liebmann, 1849. I have no information on the other name. Good luck!

CAn anyone verify these names 1, borsigiana either as a species or subspecies of M. deliciosa ? It is tossed around as if it were associated with some dwarf growing plant form. 2. M. karstenianum AKA Monstera ‘Ex Peru’. This looks very unlike a Monstera species. Does anyone know if it is valid or what it might refer to specifically? Thanks and appreciate any input. Jim W.
