Amorpho Identification

From: Bruno Matter Bruno.Matter at unibas.ch> on 2001.04.24 at 14:17:42(6254)
Since a few years I grow a Amorpho. abyssinicus who was wild collected
in Kamerun.
Finaly it's flowering but it is lacking the Tube constriction mentioned
in the Amorphophallus Key in Aroideana 19. Also is the Appendix subequal
to the Spathe, so it looks very similar to a small konjac flower.
Has anyone a more detailed description of that species???
