Arisaema consanguineum in Sikkim is pretty much conform the holotype and has narrower leaflets with drooptips, a non-striped, all-green flower with a wider spathe blade ending in a long, filiform apex. The spathe tube in consanguineum is also not narrowing towards the spathe mouth like the plant on the pictures so I agree with Manudev about his identification as concinnum. Consanguineum rarely occurs in Sikkim, concinnum is much more common, both in Sikkim and in W Bengal, often forming colonies due to its stoloniferous behavior.
