This document reports on a karyomorphological study of three Alocasia species: A. macrorrhiza, A. fornicata, and A. longiloba. The study found that all three species have a chromosome number of 2n=28. A. longiloba chromosomes were longer on average than the other two species. All three species were determined to have a symmetric karyotype. Previous studies on the genus Alocasia are also discussed relating to uses, chemical constituents, and chromosome analyses of different morphological forms. The current study aims to contribute to the genetic improvement and conservation of these ethnomedicinally and economically important plant species.
