5. ECUADOR. NAPO: Aii<strong>an</strong>gu, 1-15 Feb 1986 (st),<br />
Korning & Thomson 47801 <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> 47807 (BG).<br />
The latter has most characters in common <strong>with</strong><br />
the form of P. bicolor subsp. bicolor <strong>with</strong> <strong>an</strong> entire<br />
lamina, being smooth above. However, the<br />
indument of the leafy twigs, petiole, <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> lower<br />
leaf surface resembles that of P. cucura. The former<br />
collection <strong>with</strong> 5-parted leaves <strong><strong>an</strong>d</strong> incisions<br />
down to the petiole may represent the juvenile<br />
form of the latter collection. The mixture of characters<br />
suggests possible hybridization.<br />
