Rhaphidophora (Greek for needle-bearing; alluding to needle-like hairs). Araceae. Climbing aroids, to be treated like Philodendron and Pothos. Species 60 in Engler. Pflanzenreich, hft. 37 (IV. 23B. 1908), of the East Indies, allied to Pothos, but distinguished by the presence of odd hairs in the intercellular spaces and by the two-loculed rather than three-loculed ovary. The garden plant Pothos aureus, sometimes provisionally referred here, is to be sought in Scindapsus. The generic name is sometimes spelled Raphidophora.

It is not known that any species of Rhaphidophora are in the American trade. R. pertusa, Schott (Phothos pertusus, Roxbg. Scindapsus pertusus, Schott), has large monstera-like lvs., with long and narrow side lobes and numerous holes in the blade. R.H. 1883, p. 561. R. de- cursiva, Schott, is a gigantic climber, with large pinnate lvs., the segms. or lfts. oblong-lanceolate-acuminate and strongly nerved: spathe yellowish. B.M. 7282. R. Peepla, Schott, has entire oblong or elliptic-oblong lvs., with roundish or subcordate base: spathe yellowish.
