{{Inc|
Rhaphidophora (Greek for needle-bearing; alluding to needle-like
hairs). Araceae. Climbing aroids, to be treated like Philodendron and
Pothos. Species 60 in Engler. Pflanzenreich, hft. 37 (IV. 23B. 1908),
of the East Indies, allied to Pothos, but distinguished by the presence
of odd hairs in the intercellular spaces and by the two-loculed rather
than three-loculed ovary. The garden plant Pothos aureus, sometimes
provisionally referred here, is to be sought in Scindapsus. The generic
name is sometimes spelled Raphidophora.

It is not known that any species of Rhaphidophora are in the American
trade. R. pertusa, Schott (Phothos pertusus, Roxbg. Scindapsus
pertusus, Schott), has large monstera-like lvs., with long and narrow
side lobes and numerous holes in the blade. R.H. 1883, p. 561. R. de-
cursiva, Schott, is a gigantic climber, with large pinnate lvs., the
segms. or lfts. oblong-lanceolate-acuminate and strongly nerved: spathe
yellowish. B.M. 7282. R. Peepla, Schott, has entire oblong or
elliptic-oblong lvs., with roundish or subcordate base: spathe
yellowish.
