Alocasia identification

**&* B* <d*@univie.ac.at>**

Hello,
I have found an aroid at the botanical garden of Vienna, which was
classified as Xanthosoma sagittifolium. But that's wrong, I guess.
I would say its an Alocasia (basal placentation, ovules few), maybe
Alocasia macrorrhizos?
Here is the link to the pictures plus information:

Any suggestion would be helpful and ,if needed, I could send more pictures
or detailed informations.

All the best,
David
