Re: Unidentified aroids

From: Paul Tyerman tyerman at dynamite.com.au> on 2000.06.26 at 02:56:45(4925) OK.... I now have to ask..... What the hell is a Gonatopus????? Never heard of it until the other day, and now it's popping up in nearly every email to the list. Can someone give me some details, pictures or whatever? I'm intrigued to say the least. Cheers.
