Unknown Philodendron

From: "Steve Lucas Exotic Rainforest" steve at exoticrainforest.com> on 2006.09.12 at 00:11:48(14592) Does anyone have a suggestion as to what species this philodendron may be? The largest leaves are currently approximately 13 inches (33cm) but I'm told they get much larger. This one is definately a climber and is adding new leaves every few months. The underside of the blade is a very pale burgundy. Thanks!

I wish I could have the opportunity to meet you in Miami next weekend. I lost both of my legs 4 years ago and travel is now difficult. I am planning to visit with Dr. Croat early in October and two trips was just more than I could handle. But your's and Dr. Croat's assistance is invaluable to me! Thanks again.

From: "Steve Lucas Exotic Rainforest" steve at exoticrainforest.com> on 2006.09.12 at 07:02:19(14595) I received a personal email from Dr. Eduardo Gon?alves regarding my request for help in finding a name for the philo I posted last night. The good Dr. told me it was Philodendron atabapoense from Venezuela and Brazil. I am indebted to all of the good folks on Aroid L for their assistance in finding out the names of some of the unusual plants in my collection, especially Dr. Croat, Dr. Gon?alves and Julius Boos. If anyone has personal experience with the species or more detailed information I'd love to know. Thanks again!

From: "Steve Lucas Exotic Rainforest" steve at exoticrainforest.com> on 2006.09.12 at 16:59:54(14597) Thank you very much for your response. Dr. Gon?alves has offered a different opinion so now it appears I'll have to do some confirming of details to be certain. I have just posted the plant as Philodendron atabapoense on my website but will add your note as the plant possibly being Philodendron curvilobum as well until we can be certain which name is correct. I know photographs of specimens that are not fully mature can be difficult to identify so I certainly appreciate your help.
