Re: Chaos in Monstera names

Marek:

            Monstera friedrichsthalii is a synonym of A. adansonii but M. pertusa is not even a Monstera as I recall but rather a Rhapidophora (Pete is this not correct?). M. karwinskyi is a synonym of M. acuminate, not the other way around.  M. obliqua has lots of synonyms.  Madison lists 7 including M. expilata Schott but I intend to resurrect the latter.

Hello,

 

Can anyone authoritatively tell if:

 

M. friedrichsthalii = M. adansonii = M. pertusa

 

M. acuminata = M. karwinskyi

 

M. obliqua has no synonyms

 

Best

Marek
