Adelonema crinipes is a
aroid plant belonging to the Philodendron clade. This species was previously classified under the genus Philodendron, but taxonomic revisions have led to its reclassification into the distinct genus Adelonema.[2][3]
Description
Adelonema crinipes is native to the Neotropical region, with a distribution spanning parts of Central and South America.[2][3] It is an epiphytic or hemiepiphytic plant, meaning it can grow both on the ground and on other plants, such as trees.[2][3] The plant has distinctive large, deeply lobed leaves and a unique inflorescence structure.[2][3]
