Amorphophallus lacourii[1] is a species of plants in the family Araceae and the monotypics tribe Thomsonieae. Its native range is Indo-China.[2] It is still often known by its synonym Pseudodracontium lacourii, a consequence of Nicholas Edward Brown[3] originally erecting the now obsolete genus Pseudodracontium.
