  Re: [Aroid-l] Fw: Please i need id on this Araceae plant

Dear Marek,
=A0
I can't help with the id of the Nigerian species but would agree it's more likely Cercestis if it's in the wild as Syngonium is not native to Nigeria.
=A0
Slightly off topic, the mention of medicinal uses makes me wonder if Ogie-Odia Efosa might like to make contact with me (denibown@gmail.com) as I'm in the process of moving to Nigeria and will be working on a project in Ibadan that involves Nigerian medicinal plants.

Please could you forward this if your Nigerian=A0friend doesn't read aroid-l.

Many thanks,
