With best regards, David Le 12 juin 07 � 03:27, ExoticRainforest a �crit : � Apologies, the photo did not attach the first time! � I've been trading emails today with Dr. Croat trying to find information on Philodendron panduriforme.� He indicates he wrote an article in Aroideana Volume 9 that includes that species entitled Araceae of Venezuela.� If any of you have the article and could scan any photos of the plant (if there are any) I'd really appreciate the help. � Here's what I'm trying to track down.� In Deni Bown's book on Aroids she indicates that Philodendron panduriforme is the same as Philodendron bippenifolium (see the index).� I have read this same claim elsewhere.� Tom indicates this is incorrect.� I am aware that P. bipennifolium has several growth forms and is variable.� I have a great photo from a book on the Burle Marx collection of the adult form of this species which I am attaching.� I'm also aware the adult form looks absolutely nothing like the juvenile.� It appears that many (especially on eBay) have been selling P. bipennifolium in the juvenile state and calling it P. panduriforme and vice versa.� I'm reasonably certain I have P. bipennifolium, but I'm not sure if I have the real P. panduriforme.� P. panduriforme is a three lobed species according to Tom.� If any of you have a verified photo of that species I'd appreciate the assist. � Thanks! � Steve Lucas www.ExoticRainforest.com � _______________________________________________ Aroid-l mailing list Aroid-l@gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l _______________________________________________Aroid-l mailing listAroid-l@gizmoworks.comhttp://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l _______________________________________________ Aroid-l mailing list Aroid-l@gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l
