Re: [Aroid-l] Anthurium elegans taxonomy

From: "Tom Croat" <Thomas.Croat at mobot.org> on 2012.01.25 at 04:38:11 Dear David:=A0 There is a mistake in the World Checklist. Anthurium elegans Engl. Is a synonym of A. pedatum (L) Schott.=A0 In my copy of the checklist I have also included A. fortunatum Bunting as being equal to A. pedatum.   Tom   From: aroid-l-bounces@www.gizmoworks.com [mailto:aroid-l-bounces@www.gizmoworks.com] On Behalf Of david br=F6derbauer Sent: Monday, January 23, 2012 3:01 AM To: aroid-l@gizmoworks.com Subject: [Aroid-l] Anthurium elegans taxonomy   Dear Aroiders, I have received an inflorescence of Anthurium elegans from Josef Bogner some time ago. Now I checked it's taxonomic status on the Kew Monocot checklist. There, Anthurium elegans is listed as synonym for 2 species, Anthurium palmatum and A. fortunatum. Josef Bogner says that his specimen is different from A. palmatum. So it could be Anthurium fortunatum - or is Anthurium elegans itself still a valid species? Thanks for help!
