Re: Supervolute vernation. Finally a photo!]

Which is one reason I made no further attempt at a further explanation.  You can find more than a dozen types of vernation on pages 332 and 333 with drawings and explanations.  Stern's Botanical Latin can be purchased from Amazon for $20, used copies for less.  It is filled with information.

Steve,
 
We cannot talk about vernation types not seeing the midrib as it is presented on the second drawing.
It can as well be a half of a leaf rolled involutely.
 
The third drawing (convolute) is what I thought about (but I was afraid to say) -
that the term "convolute" may refer only to at least two objects
like one leaf inside another one or a spadix wrapped by a spathe.
 
Anyway in my cord photos, the third type, although probably not occuring in Araceae
is possible, so it must have a name too.
 
It's becoming complicated...
