All images I have seen are A. brancifolia. Very best Peter From: aroid-l-bounces@gizmoworks.com [mailto:aroid-l-bounces@gizmoworks.com] On Behalf Of Leslie Georgeson Sent: 17 June 2009 23:30 To: aroiders Subject: [Aroid-l] Alocasia brancifolia/Alocasia nishihiri This is one for the Alocasia experts: Can anyone tell me the difference, if any, between Alocasia brancifolia and Alocasia nishihiri? Are they simply the same plant with two different names, or two separate, but similar, plants? Or has one name now replaced the other? Please help! Thank you!
