Sorryabout that! Its 2:15 AM and my brain is not fully on!
The accepted name is Amorphophalluskonjac K. Koch published in 1858.
Amorphophallus rivieri Durieu ex Carrière was published1869
First publication wins the prize.

What is the story behind that? Is rivieri an old name, or what?
Just curious....
