Phrynium (from Greek word for toad, because the plant inhabits marshes). Maraniceae. Maranta-like plants with creeping rootstocks and large oblong showy radical leaves.
The genus is closely allied to Calathea and Maranta and is often confused with them. The Marantas are New World plants with 1 seed-bearing locule in the fruit, whereas Calathea and Phrynium have 3-seed- bearing locules; or at least a 3-celled ovary. In Calathea, the fl.-cluster is terminal on a leafy st. or rarely on a leafless scape arising directly from the rhizome; in Phrynium, the cluster is lateral from the sheathing petiole. In Calathea the corolla-tube is usually slender; in Phrynium it is usually short.—Species 14 and a few others of doubtful position are admitted to the monograph by Schumann in 1902 (Engler's Das Pflanzen- reich, iv. 48), and other species have been described since then; they are native in India, Malasia to New Guinea.
Phryniums are grown the same as calatheas and marantas (which see). P. variegatum, N. E. Br., is probably a variegated form of Maranta arundinacea. It is a stove plant of dwarf habit with ovate-lanceolate acuminate green lf.-blades which are marked with cream-white or white stripes and bands. I.H. 33:606. F.R. 3:469. Gt. 46, p. 581. J.H. III. 28:27; 61:560. It is a worthy plant, now coming to be popular. P. Micholitzii, Hort. Lvs. broadly oblong, about 10 in. long, acute, green and broadly white-striped above from the midrib outward, paler beneath, midrib claret- red, petiole red. New Guinea. G.C. III. 33:suppl. April 18. R.H. 1903, p. 226. P. floribundum, Lem., is Calathea violacea, Lindl., a tall species with oblong or oblong-lanceolate lvs. green above and purplish and glaucescent beneath and violet-colored fls., from Brazil B.R. 961. L.B.C. 12:1148. For P. eximium, see Calathea eximia. L.H.B.
