From: "Tom Croat" <Thomas.Croat at mobot.org> on 2009.02.23 at 21:28:58 Dear Michael:   I seem to remember that I have 11 speciesin the as yet unpublished revision.   Tom       From: aroid-l-bounces@gizmoworks.com[mailto:aroid-l-bounces@gizmoworks.com] OnBehalf Of RAYMOMATTLA@cs.com Sent: Sunday, February 22, 20095:57 PM To: aroid-l@gizmoworks.com Subject: Re: [Aroid-l] Thorns atanubiases   Like Tom said,  some of the species of South AmericanHomalomena have prickles or thorns.  My adult sized H. wendlandii havesmall thorns on their petioles.  Ive seen pics of other species with muchlarger "thorns"....probably the species Tom mentioned, also from theNeotropics.  Others have almost hairy petioles like the variety of H.picturata that was collected by (I think Betsy?) BTW Tom,  roughly, how many species of Homalomena occur in the Neotropics? Thanks, Michael Mattlage ------_=_NextPart_001_01C995FD.BCF1029E----===============2053896403709984038==
