Tacca bibracteata is a plant in the Dioscoreaceae family, native to Sarawak.[1]
It was first described by Engbert Drenth in 1908.[1][2]
Description[edit]
Tacca bibracteata has 6-7 entire oblong leaves with attenuate bases and acuminate apices, and pinnate nerves.[2] It has four to many filiform bracts, and just two involucral bracts,[2] and it is this characteristic which gives the species epithet, bibracteata.[2] The apparently solitary inflorescence has up to ten flowers which are green and tinged with violet or very dark purple.[2]
