Aroiders,


a fellow aroider from our German forum

( http://www.amorphophallus-forum.de/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1513 - sorry pictures only visible for registered people)

got via ebay an Anrum palaestinum, which was probably misslabled.


Candidates are:

A. concinnatum, but spadix is probaly too short for this...

A. italicum, since anthers are yellow, not purple; but if it is italiucum, which ssp.?


Please have a look at the attached pictures.


Happy ID-ing, Bernhard.
