Bucephalandra gigantea
So far known only from the type locality, where it is described as "very common here, forming the vegetation" (Endert in sched., translated from Dutch).Remarks - Bucephalandra gigantea is presently the largest described Bucephalandra species, remarkable for the size of the leaf blades. The Kew isotype has the most complete field data, and there it is noted "andere bijzonderheden" (other observations) "already a few specimens collected along the rivulets but much smaller there". Neither of the published descriptions (Bogner 1984; Bogner & Hay 2000) makes mention of any colours, although the label on the Kew isotype records "petioles reddish, leaf upper surface blotched/spotted reddish; - spathe pink; - fruit green" (translated from Dutch).
Bucephalandra gigantea is rheophytic on rocks submerged in water and on small waterfalls, reported from c. 700 m above sea level. Endert (in sched.) reported B. gigantea as forming the dominant rheophytic vegetation.
