This is an as-yet un-named lithophytic species of Alocasia found growing on limestone slopes on the Philippines island of Samar.
Its distinguishing feature is the peltate leaf with small or no sinus (thats the dent at the top of the leaf blade). The leaf blade is plain and smooth at the top with only the central midrib showing an indentation. Only a few specimens were seen, all growing on the steep slope in the shade.
