is mislabelled, and is not from Africa, but from
Borneo. It is now a synonym of P. cirratum var.

by Hyvönen (56) to occur only in SE Asia, and is
shown as such in his distribution maps, but he
quotes De Sloover’s illustration (289), which is of
a plant collected in Mauritius. A similar disjunction
is shown by P. proliferum (Griff.) Mitt.
