Tacca
The genus ''Tacca'', which includes the Bat flowers and Arrowroot, consists of flowering plants in the order Dioscoreales, native to tropical regions of South America, Africa, Australia, Southeast Asia, and various oceanic islands.〔(Kew World Checklist of Selected Plant Families )〕 In older texts, the genus was treated in its own family Taccaceae, but the 2003 APG II system incorporates it into the family Dioscoreaceae.〔Caddick, L. R., P. Wilkin, P. J. Rudall, T. A. J. Hedderson & M. W. Chase. 2002. Yams reclassified: a recircumscription of Dioscoreaceae and Dioscoreales. Taxon 51(1): 103–114.〕
==Cultivated varieties==
Several species are cultivated as ornamental plants for their bold foliage and large flowers. The well-known ''T. chantrieri'' goes by the names of Black Bat Flower, Bat-head Lily, Devil Flower or Cat's Whiskers. ''Tacca integrifolia'' is known as the Purple or White Bat Flower. Other cultivated varieties include the Arrowroot, ''T. pinnatifida leontopetaloides'', and ''T. cristata aspera''.〔Govaerts, R., Wilkin, P. & Saunders, R.M.K. (2007). World Checklist of Dioscoreales. Yams and their allies: 1-65. The Board of Trustees of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew.〕〔(Flora of China, Vol. 24 Page 274, 蒟蒻薯属 ju ruo shu shu, ''Tacca'' J. R. Forster & G. Forster, Char. Gen.
