Myrmecodia urdanetensis

Huxley and Jebb did address Myrmecodia urdenatensis in their revision of the genus Myrmecodia.  They inserted it into their Myrmecodia tuberosa 'apoensis' without any real discussion of the matter.  Look at the "Collections - Philippines" section in the middle of their page 280.

 

Someone could probably do a great Ph. D. thesis reworking the Philippine Myrmecodias as it seems all Huxley and Jebb did was lump the lowland Phipippine Myrmecodias into M. tuberosa 'sibuyanensis' and the high altitude plants into M. tuberosa 'apoensis'.

oh yes , in the document from ANDREAS  you see " not a M.apoensis  because of its much smaller leaves with slenderer petioles"  but this difference is may be too minimal ?

 

on an other document ( 1923) I see  from phillipines 4 myrmecodia

 

-M.apoensis

-M.echinata

-M.sibuyanensis

-M.urdanetensis

 

in hydnophytum 9 species

 

-H.formicarum

-H.intermedium

-H.leytense

-H.membranaceum

-H.mindanaense

-H.mindorense

-H.nitidum

-H.orbiculatum

-H.philippinense

 

in myrmephytum

 

M.beccarii

 

now in this last genus we add  M.selebicum  and may be an other from mindoro .
