Bonjour PHILPATRICK

they are ants from your home that colonized your plant ?

do you have a picture in section of the inside of the flower but vertical (from bottom to top) to better see the position of the anther, the ring of hair, the stigma?

how many lobe on the stigma ?

Myrmecodia cf. pulvinata  ; do you mean Myrmecodia tuberosa cf 'pulvinata'

thank you FRANK

it remains for us to read, re-read and re-read again ,to impregnate us with this revision

jeff

Bonjour

for me H.kiense is not a H radicans  , the leaves are not the same .

see here a H.radicans authenticate by HUXLEY 1991

Bonjour

have you a picture from the whole plant ?

spines seems to be  modified advantivious roots ,there is also a gradation from spines to roots .

a lot of rubiaceae have often spines around the alveoli where you have  often  flowers

Bonjour

the petioles are what lengths ?

ANDREAS : may be a macro pictures for the spines of the  tuber

jeff

Bonjour

a point seems important to me on the specimen that ANDREAS proposes us, the shape of the spines of the tuber, they are stellated or with a particular form, not simple spines.

What are your ideae ?

what annoys me is that the line wallace passes between Bali and LomboK, and from what I read the vegetations of each side of this line are not the same .

on Bali I have no record of rubiaceae

magnifique ANDREAS 😍

but it is not  a Myrmecodia tuberosa, "siasiada village" Milne Bay Province, PNG,here the tuber is spiny on the first picture  no spine on the tuber

jeff

excellent  infos  on the salomon island species , 😍

merci  FRANK

Bonjour

may be this one https://www.europeana.eu/portal/fr/record/11621/_NHMUK_BOT_BM000945561.html?q=hydnophytum+#dcId=1550046811532&p=1

it is a new guinea species

Bonjour

with a picture  may be one idea

Bonjour

on the drupe how many  pyrenes number ?

on the flower how many fid  and have you a ring of hair ?

the shape of the leaves is quite characteristic,is not it  😉

on this specimen the between nodes seems indeed rather short, but maybe it is a problem of condition of life, on the others that you saw the stems are always picked up?

Bonjour

may be this one :

Bonjour

have you a picture of this hydnophytum mamberamoense  , and why not a description?

jeff

Bonjour

for me it is a Schomburgkia tibicinis ,This orchid Schomburgkia Tibicinis, is apparently also known as Myrmecophilia Tibicinis, Catteleya Tibicinis, and Epidendrum Tibicinis.😉

Bonjour

do you know  the Bali's ant plant ?

on this island may be some  M.tuberosa 'rumphii'  do you know if there are ?

jeff

Bonjour

see here a very good document on the lecanopteris

http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/bibliography/77306

 the 45 volume page 293 to 335

they are all the species find on sulawesi

jeff

Bonjour

I use  2 fertilizer for these plants

NPK : 23.5.5  for green plants

NPK : 13.19.19 now like my amorphophallus  here I favor the P (phosphorus for root development) and the K (potassium for flowering and fruit development (drupes))

between 2 fertilizations use rainwater

jeff

Bonjour

have you picture to their clypeoli and alveoli ?

jeff

Bonjour

Ashley (1971); Rickson(1979)  ; Jansen (1974) and Huxley (1978) have worked on this subject  , and found similarites with carnivorous plants.

jeff

Bonjour

I am taker for 2-3 drupe

see the PM

JEFF

Bonjour

The two mine, adult and that have fruited abundantly, I lost them unfortunately.
They began to lose all their foliage, then were invaded by a kind of moss that made them die.

Also, I made a fatal mistake, I distributed seeds everywhere and I did not worry about me, if I could sometimes find one or two Drupe, it would be enchanting.

jeff

Bonjour ROBERT

merci for this catalogue

jeff

Bonjour

very interesting method to grow dischidia .

the nursery in Mareebe have a web site ?

jeff

Bonjour

for Borneo island  (borneo- sarawak ) species  I think like FRANK .

may be others morphologicals caracters to see : the clipeoli , the alveoli , the leaves midrib , and also if the clypeoli continue to the base of the stem .
