Perhaps Jay in Central America to expand the coverage a bit (is the situation similar or are there interesting differences …?)   Derek   From: aroid-l-bounces@www.gizmoworks.com [mailto:aroid-l-bounces@www.gizmoworks.com] On Behalf Of Johannes Moonen Sent: Wednesday, November 03, 2010 7:25 AM To: Discussion of aroids Subject: Re: [Aroid-l] Aglaomena & Amerindian plants & Anoucha     Morning Tom,   I reconize four different Dieffenbachia's in FG: 1 D. humilis 2 D. sequine 3 D. ornatum (small and hard to keep in culture !) 4 D. spec. : the big (5 feet tall) tree like dieffenbachia.   I hope you have time to look at some good Dieffenbachia spots when you are visiting in 2011 - and you can help me giving the right names.   Have a nice day,          Joep   On Nov 1, 2010, at 11:25 PM, Tom Croat wrote: Dear Joep:             I think that I have two species in the Guianas if I am not misremembering.  One of them is probably D. spruceana or at least a very close relative.   Tom   From: aroid-l-bounces@www.gizmoworks.com [mailto:aroid-l-bounces@www.gizmoworks.com] On Behalf Of santoury@aol.com Sent: Monday, November 01, 2010 11:42 AM To: aroid-l@www.gizmoworks.com Subject: Re: [Aroid-l] Aglaomena & Amerindian plants & Anoucha   Hello The first picture looks identical to my Aglaonema which has been identified as A. brevispathum hospitum.  The monkey is gorgeous - what type is she? Thank you for sharing! That Dieffenbachia is something else.

I collected it locally but did not register where. I often collect plants on tourist trips but have not allways the time to write things down.   <image002..jpg> Dieffenbachia spec FG. I think these Dieffenbachias on the coest of FG are also of Amerindian origin.   <image003..jpg>   Detail of the same Dieffenbachia. They grow among other Amerindian plants like Caladiums etc. <image004.jpg>   At least a picture of Anoucha that went on our last Oiapogue expedition in September. She is a hunting victim, confiscated by IBAMA and given to our boatsman to raise. She is adorable.    have a nice day, tchao        Joep   =3D _______________________________________________ Aroid-L mailing list Aroid-L@www.gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l _______________________________________________ Aroid-L mailing list Aroid-L@www.gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l   ------=_NextPart_000_0008_01CB80B4.8F2FBC50-- --===============8003767256314342836==
