Dear Denis,



Thanks! Tom gave me some info on this species, he says that though it
LOOKS like a typical birds nest Anthurium, it has so many unique features
that it may eventually be put into its own section. The next question is
does anyone on aroid-l have collected or at least labeled specimens in their
collections, or do I have to look for it on my next visit, who knows when,
to Trinidad??



The best,



Julius




Julius:




You can find it under "Anthurium huegelii" in Tropicos on line. it appears
to be synonymous with A. hookerii.



I've seen the name referenced in a book recently published by an older
landscape Archetect in which he listed all his favorite landscaping plants
for South Florida....I think he used it as others still do use the name
"Anth. Hookerii" as a catch all name for all the large bird's nest types
(mostly pachyneurims types) which work so well in the South Florida
landscape. As we know very few any of what is advertised in the trade as A.
hookerii is rarely hookeri, but one of the various Pachyneurium species such
as A. cubense or A. schlechtendalii.
