Typhonium roxburghiiObserver
plantboyofsingaporeDescription
Pictures taken between 11 Feburary and 8 July, same individuals observed.
There have been three Typhonium species recorded in Singapore so far: T. flagelliforme, T. roxburghii, and T. trilobatum.
T. flagelliforme can be distinguished from the other two from its narrowly spear-shaped leaves.
T. roxburghii can be easily confused with T. trilobatum.
Take out the spadix (inflorescence) from the spathe (bract) to distinguish between T. trilobatum and T. roxburghii.
T. trilobatum should have squiggly pistillate (female) flowers, as compared to the curved pistillate flowers of T. roxburghii. I have not found T. trilobatum yet, but I will upload another observation when I see an individual with flowers.
Link to paper summarising the differences of the T. trilobatum and T. roxburghii:
