I know the thread is becoming very long, but I have found no authentic specimen to convinnce me that my plant is I. batatas. Till then I will stick to I. digitata. I think the search continues. -- Dr. Gurcharan Singh Retired Associate Professor SGTB Khalsa College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 Res: 932 Anand Kunj, Vikas Puri, New Delhi-110018.
