Costus arabicus
This species I found in the dark undergrowth of the forest not far from the river by SouthWild Pantanal.
Chamaecostus acaulis
An incredibly fragile inflorescence. It’s a kind of ginger and is edible. I found them in many dense groups on the jungle floor not far from where the landscape is rising towards the walls of the Huanchaca Plateau (also called Caparu Meseta (Meseta de Caparú)).
