Scindapsus
''Scindapsus'' is a genus of flowering plants in the Araceae family. It is native to Southeast Asia, New Guinea, Queensland, and a few western Pacific islands.〔(Kew World Checklist of Selected plant Families )〕〔Govaerts, R. & Frodin, D.G. (2002). World Checklist and Bibliography of Araceae (and Acoraceae): 1-560. The Board of Trustees of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew.〕〔Mansor, M., Boyce, P.C., Othman, A.S. & Sulaiman, B. (2012). The Araceae of peninsular Malaysia: 1-146. Penerbit Universiti Sains Malaysia. 〕 ''Scindapsus'' is not easily distinguishable from ''Epipremnum''. The main difference between the two genera is in the number of seeds they produce. ''Scindapsus'' species have one ovule in each ovary whereas ''Epipremnum'' species have a few. The seeds of ''Scindapsus'' are rounded to slightly kidney-shaped. The plants are primarily root climbing vines.〔(Flora of China Vol. 23 Page 15, 藤芋属 teng yu shu, ''Scindapsus'' Schott in Schott & Endlicher, Melet. Bot. 21. 1832. )〕 ==History of the name== Claudius Aelianus (Aelian, 2-3 cc., ''De Natura Animalium'' XII.44-46, XVII.18), uses the word in relation to an Indian musical instrument used for taming the wild elephants.〔Bown, Deni (2000).
