Re: [Aristolochia] aristolochia gorgona

Hello Richard,
I might have this book in the library.  Don't send me yet.  I am going to find the book in the library first, I remember it is about wild Costa Rica but not sure if it is of the same title.  I think the mucuna is pollinated by bats. 
It snowed here in Vancouver, practically everything is standing still!
Here is a new picture of the aristolochia gorgona painting in progress.
I will wait for my off work day to work on the cross section.
Victor
