Hello Peter=2C

I'm confused. Isn't Colocasia antiquorum SCHOTT a valid species? At least in Li Heng's and your treatment in the Flora of China it is.

Hello=2C

 =3B

Which name is the proper one?

Colocasia esculenta var. antiquorum (Schott) C.E. Hubb. &=3B Rehder

or

Colocasia antiquorum Schott

 =3B

On the web (IAS=2C Tropicos=2C IPNI=2C CATE) I can find both combinations

and I really don't know which one should be used.

Best=2C
