RE: Typhonium pedunculatum


Dear Wilbert,
	Thanks for clearing up the "mystery" which once again, when you learn a
few facts turns out to not be a mystery at all.  Because I plan on using it
in our study, I would appreciate learning more about it, its placement in
which Typhonium section, its habitat and country (exact location,
preferably), collector.  This is all the type data which I'm sure you will
include in a publication, but would appreciate a short note now. 	Also
would very much like a picture (preferably a slide) which I could use in a
talk I will be giving in early March on Araceae.  It would be nice to show
that there is still much to learn in the family.

Thanks very much for the info.
Vic
