This issue opens with Monroe Birdsey’s editorial on the nature of “species” in taxonomy. Wilhelm Barthlott and Josef Bogner recount the long‐lost rediscovery of Amorphophallus staudtii in Ivory Coast. Marcel Lecoufle introduces a near-albino Caladium humboldtii cultivar named ‘Marcel’. Arnold Melim provides a hands-on guide to producing viable seed in taro (Colocasia esculenta). A series of classic Anthurium illustrations by Sodiro is featured, followed by classified ads, an erratum, and striking cover photographs of Philodendron domesticum (front) and P. lacerum (back).
