Re: Aglaomena & Amerindian plants & Anoucha

Dear Joep: 

 

            Do you by chance have any images of species 1, 3 and 4?  Do you have only one species with maculate petioles?

 

Tom

Morning Tom,

 

I reconize four different Dieffenbachia's in FG:

1 D. humilis

2 D. sequine

3 D. ornatum (small and hard to keep in culture !)

4 D. spec. : the big (5 feet tall) tree like dieffenbachia.

 

I hope you have time to look at some good Dieffenbachia spots when you are visiting in 2011 - and you can help me giving the right names.

 

Have a nice day,          Joep

            I think that I have two species in the Guianas if I am not misremembering.  One of them is probably D. spruceana or at least a very close relative.

Hello

The first picture looks identical to my Aglaonema which has been identified as A. brevispathum hospitum. 

The monkey is gorgeous - what type is she? Thank you for sharing! That Dieffenbachia is something else. I love it!

Dear Eduardo & friends,

 

This plant in my collection in Guayana Francesca looks like the Aglaomena or Bognera in Santourys mail. I collected it locally but did not register where. I often collect plants on tourist trips but have not allways the time to write things down.

Dieffenbachia spec FG.

I think these Dieffenbachias on the coest of FG are also of Amerindian origin.

Detail of the same Dieffenbachia. They grow among other Amerindian plants like Caladiums etc.

At least a picture of Anoucha that went on our last Oiapogue expedition in September. She is a hunting victim, confiscated by IBAMA and given to our boatsman to raise. She is adorable. 

 

have a nice day, tchao        Joep
