Philodendron with largest leaves?

From: Zach DuFran <zdufran at gmail.com> on 2018.08.30 at 14:21:31(24017) I don't think anyone has suggested that the move is not fully supported.

Here is the journal article recognizing the genus Thaumatophyllum: https://phytokeys.pensoft.net/articles.php?id=25044 I believe the largest Thaumatophyllum leaves are probably bipinnatifidum and speciosum.

From: Peter Boyce <phymatarum at gmail.com> on 2018.08.31 at 06:38:30(24024) Accepting (supporting) Thaumatophyllum as a genus is not simply a matter of agreeing that the species assigned to subgen. Meconostigma deserve to be recognized as belonging to a newly circumscribed Thaumatophyllum, there is also the question as to what removal of these species from the corpus of Philodendron leaves behind - i.e., does removal of Thaumatophyllum mean that the balance of Philodendron is no longer a 'natural' genus and to render it so requires further splitting. This may all sound very esoteric but in terms of understanding evolutionary process it is important stuff.
