<P> Carrion flowers, also known as corpse flowers or stinking flowers, are flowers that emit an odor that smells like rotting flesh . Carrion flowers attract mostly scavenging flies and beetles as pollinators . Some species may trap the insects temporarily to ensure the gathering and transfer of pollen . </P> <P> Many plants in the genus Amorphophallus (family Araceae) are known as carrion flowers . One such plant is the Titan arum (Amorphophallus titanum), which has the world's largest unbranched inflorescence . Rather than a single flower, the titan arum presents an inflorescence or compound flower composed of a spadix or stalk of small and anatomically reduced male and female flowers, surrounded by a spathe that resembles a single giant petal . This plant has a mechanism to heat up the spadix enhancing the emission of the strong odor of decaying meat to attract its pollinators, carrion - eating beetles and "flesh flies" (family Sarcophagidae). It was first described scientifically in 1878 in Sumatra . </P>
