Aroideana Vol. 24

Journal of the International Aroid Society

Volume 24 (2001) of Aroideana, the annual journal of the International Aroid Society, opens with Peter C. Boyce’s editorial reflecting on the Society’s 2000 meeting at Fairchild and the discovery of a new Rhaphidophora. This is followed by an “In Memoriam” for Prof. H. C. D. de Wit. The issue then presents eight taxonomic and ecological papers on Neotropical Aroids: three by Eduardo G. Gonçalves (a new Anthurium from Minas Gerais and the rediscovery of A. xanthophylloides and Philodendron spiritus‑sancti in Espírito Santo) and five by international authors describing new species and revisions from Brazil, India, Vietnam, Thailand, and Australia. The back half features seven further monographic treatments—on Typophonium, Alocasia brisbanensis, Alloschemone, Amorphophallus mysorensis, Acorus brachystachys, and a new Cyrtosperma. The issue concludes with detailed publication and ordering information.
