Hello,

I agree with many of you about the fact that the spathe interior wall is
clear, whitish. I'm almost sure that this clear color contrast with the
dark environment and as you may be on the figure posted in my last e-mail
some reflection occurs (the zone around the constriction) is clear blue
(about 2?C degrees ) of the rest of the spathe certainly increasing the
bright/clear aspect of the interior spathe wall both in normal and IR light.
But the spathe being not thermogenic its attractive effect may be minimal
comparing to the bright spadix (in IR wavelenghts).

All the best,

Marc
