Monstera Juvenile plants with shingle leaves, tightly appressed to tree and with short petioles. Flowering spadix erect. sect. Monstera Flowering spadix pendent, adult leaf with ligule about as long as petiole. sect. Echinospadix
3 Monstera last revised by Madison (1977) 22 species, 3 varieties 4 sections Sect. Tornelia 1 sp. Sect. Monstera 13 spp. Sect. Marcgraviopsis 7 spp. Sect. Echinospadix 1 sp. All except 2 of Madison s species were native to Central America. One additional species, M. lechleriana is endemic to South America but reported for Central America based on misdetermined material.
