Andreas Wistuba Posted September 1, 2014 Report Share Posted September 1, 2014 I am quite unsure what conclusions to draw out of the different Hydnophytums we found during our trip to Fiji. According to Smith all species known by then would be 3 - Hydnohytum grandiflorum, H. longiflorum and H. wilkinsonii. Hydnophytum wilkinsonii is notable for it's fruit, so the specimens we found, both in the highlands and the lowlands would all belong to just two species: Hydnohytum grandiflorum and H. longiflorum. IMHO, we saw more and I put some flowers in alcohol to dissect, but most likely lost this material, so I just want to present some pictures of specimens from different localities. These specimens notable for relatively smooth tubers, long and whip-shaped shoots that are relatively little or non-branched and fruit with a distinctive tip come from Colo I Suva, near Suva and occur at low altitude asl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
