Discussion
Peltandra sagittifolia, the rarest least common species of Araceae in North America, is monitored by conservation agencies in all states in which it occurs. Although its range is completely within the range of P. virginica, the two species occur in different habitats. Plants of P. sagittifolia grow only on acidic substrates with a mean pH of 4.8 (range 4.0 to 6.0).
