Subject: A. zanlanscianense

One of the tubers supposedly A. zanlanscianense Pampan. (Hubei) from
Kaichen up and setting seed. It's 122 cm. tall, and has one radiate leaf
with 15 leaflets 31.75 cm. x 7.62 cm. with 6.85 cm. tails like A.
taiwanense and a very thick but plain green stalk. The leaflets have
striations (probably the veins) in a fish-bone pattern pointing toward
the stem of the plant.

The plant is setting seed. The inflorescence is well below the leaf.
Unfortunately, I missed seeing it so I can't describe it, but it was
quite large.

Never having seen even a picture of this plant, I have no idea if it's
properly identified. 'Flora of China' mentions it, but no description or
plate.

Does this description sound reasonable? If not, any suggestions?
