Myrmecodia beccarii not Myrmecodia tuberosa

Since I've been researching the different types of Ant Plants, I'm beginning to think the plant I have is a Myrmecodia beccarii and not a Myrmecodia tuberosa. Here's the original one I've had for a few weeks now (and what I believe is M. beccarii). And here are some pictures of the one I bought yesterday at the Kunia Orchid Plant Show and Sale (labelled as M. tuberosa). Well - that's my story and I'm going to stick with it - any references I make to the first one will be as Myrmecodia beccarii, and any references to the newer one will be as Myrmecodia tuberosa. I'm actually pretty stoked that I've got one of each!
