Some old Kalatope id’s.. Al011111: Location Kalatope, Chamba Altitude 2100 mts Habit herb Habitat wild Height 30-36 inches Season July I could never see the flowering in this one… wonder why…?? This is Sauromatum venosum, not an Arisaema. The tuber just needs to be big enough to flower but when it does you will smell it sooner than you see it. The flowers are usually dark brown and spotted and appear
Herb for ID – Wai (Maharashtra) – By Prasad Pandhare: Arisaema sp. I hope Local Marathi name for this plant is : Ran-Suran. Pl also check it for Sauromatum venosum. Agree with …, fair chance of it being Sauromatum venosum. Last year I had posted pictures of the same plant. This year I wanted to keep a track of it to observe its flowering. But I was in US and missed the opportunity again. Hope I will find it next year. This could be Sauromatum venosum.
Arisaema propinquum from Bhadarwah J&K: Kindly confirm this ID Bot. name: Arisaema propinquum Family: Araceae Location: Bhadarwah J&K Altitude: 2500 m asl Date: 14th August 2012 Incorrect, this looks to be Sauromatum venosum.
Fruit for id from Manali-NS 2012: again I got it in Manali, in similar condition, the fruits were lying on ground as if borne on a very short peduncle, but peduncle could not be seen… looks like any member from Araceae.. closest I can think is Sauromatum venosum…. want to have your opinion please… I think your assesment is correct, this indeed is the fruit of Sauromatum venosum, the fruits are often half buried in the soil as can be seen on this picture: They usually start to color from red to purple when fully ripe. In contrast to several other Araceae do the peduncles of Sauromatum not extend after pollination so the fruit will be at the same level as the initial inflorescence: close to the soil. A more compact form of S. venosum can be found in Maharashtra state, the Himalayan forms tend to be taller and more lush.

Sauromatum venosum? ABMAY01/10 : 8 posts by 4 authors. 3 images. I found a lone specimen of this today. I looked around to see if there was another but didn’t find any more. I think this is Sauromatum venosum. Please advise. Sauromatum venosum Above Mcleodganj, Dharamshala, HP 1750m approx. 6 May 2015 Yes it is. May be now in Typhonium genus. leaves emerge a bit later may be we can see them? Yes, I think, Sauromatum venosum. Thank you …, I will take a look soon to see if we have the leaves. It remains leafless during the flowering phase and will develop leaves in the end of June. I noticed the fresh leaves yesterday but since I haven’t been checking everyday these could have been out for some days. nice. lets see what … thinks. for my part i like to see the spiralling leaves emerging on one stem? pictures from kew are informative, current growing not old literature. I still think the same. Let the leaves expand fully and become pedate. I can also post the photographs of leaves. Here is one from yesterday. 1 image. Wonderful. you got it. just by looks… it matches the pattern of the umbrella like curvy “stem” on which the serrated leaflets are growing, and the veins are too. did fruits ever develop I still remain with my first opinion:- Sauromatum venosum only. I found fruit on at least one plant (I have been looking) this morning and photographed it. Hopefully in the coming days I will see more fruiting. 2 images. nice to see the young fruits (green). thanks for the follow up. lets see what they turn to — color-wise esp. since … said Dr Almeida mentions color red for the berries. and if there are many, may be you can dig one.. to look at the rhizome. Thank you …. There are many here but I have found only one fruiting yet. But I will see if others are fruiting soon too and collect a sample for a closer look. I was glad to find two flowers of S. venosum growing side by side. I peeled the spathe to reveal the male and female flowers (since the plant is quite common in our area, I took the liberty!). Here are the results. Above Dal Lake, Dharamshala, HP 1850m approx. 29 April 2017 Attachments (7) Wonderful images, …
