That is indeed the correct ID. Arisaema griffithii is a variable species and particularly in the Yumthang valley many brown forms grow side by side with the more typical griffithii. Travelling further up the valley beyond the hot spring towards Yumesodong & zero point the plants get smaller, the spathes get more narrow and the appendices thicker and more contracted until they morph into forms close to Arisaema elephas. The purple-brown forms of griffithii are sometimes identified as Arisaema utile (of cultivation) but that is incorrect, in my view that name is a full synonym of griffithii. The holotype of utile was collected from near Lachen and is a different form of griffithii with a longer peduncle.**** ** ** Regards,**** ** ** Pascal**** ** ** ** ** ** ** *From:* J.M.
