Rafflesia (named for Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles). Rafflesiaceae.
Fleshy parasites, with a solitary large sallow fl. with a cadaverous
odor rising from a superficial rhizome, leafless; fls. dioecious;
perianth fleshy, the tube hemispherical at the base, solid in the male
fls. and adnate to the ovary in the female fls., broad-campanulate
above the ovary, limb 5-parted, the segms. imbricated in 1 row; ovary
inferior, with numerous ovules. About 5 species, Malaya. R. Arnoldii,
R. Br. Fls. flesh-colored, 3 ft. across, mottled with a thick fleshy
rim or corona lining the upper part of the tube. In the male fls. there
is a thick fleshy column within the corona and adherent to the
perianth-tube and having at the top a wide flat plate, the overhanging
margin of which is revolute and on which is placed a ring of sessile
anthers. The female fls. are similar, but lack the anthers and possess
an ovary adherent to the base of the perianth-tube and having a single
cell. Sumatra. G. 7:547. J.H. III. 54:373.
