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

From: Deni Bown <denibown at googlemail.com> on 2010.02.06 at 17:20:11(20548) Dear Marek, 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. 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 friend doesn't read aroid-l. Many thanks, Deni HTML +More On 5 February 2010 21:30, Tom Croat wrote: Dear Marek: Did you ever get a name on this?
