Derrick Posted March 7, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2019 H. alboviride. Merr. & L. M. Perry, (Elmer Drew Merrill & Lily May Perry) in Journal of the Arnold Arboretum, Vol. 26, p21, (1945.) (J. Arnold Arbor.) Type, Brass 12682&3. Merr & Perry note. Of the species of Hydnophytum already described from New Guinea, this one superficially suggests H. Hellwigii (sic) Warb., but differs considerably in particulars. Apart from small leaves, distinctive characters specify, flowers in alveoli surrounded by bracts and long brown hairs; calyx with cilia 0.5 mm. long, also brown; corolla glabrous within; anthers closely affixed by the middle of the back, only apices exserted. On long leafless branches (the leaves often being only toward the tip), flowers or buds with the corolla half protruding may be observed at nodes. http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/page/8443412#page/25/mode/1up Synonym H. crassicaule, West New Guinea, Mt Dorman (Doormantop) at 3200 m.
