Product information "Myrmecodia erinacea (Sorong, Irian Jaya)"
The clear separation of Myrmecodia erinacea and alata is very difficult to impossible. Normally, M. erinacea has rather narrow leaves with wavy leaf margins and an uneven, quasi-embossed leaf surface, while M. alata has rather broad, smooth and unwavy leaves. However, it is almost impossible to separate them in some collections. I have numerous locality forms in my collection and will be offering some of them over the next few years.
In this case, it is Myrmecodia erinacea in the Sorong area on the north coast of the Bird's Head Peninsula in western New Guinea.
The collections from this area have relatively broad leaves for M. erinacea, but in contrast to Myrmecodia alata from the same region, they have the typical wavy leaf margins.
