Dieffenbachia seguine (syn. Dieffenbachia maculata), widely known as Dumbcane, Leopard Lily or Tuftroot, is a species native to the neotropical  Americas, from extreme southern Mexico and Belize and much of Central America, as well as the northern half of South America (it is typically absent in Argentina, Chile, Paraguay and Uruguay). It is found on many Caribbean islands and territories, including Cuba, Grand Bahama, Grenada, Guadeloupe, Hispaniola, Îles des Saintes, Jamaica, Martinique, Puerto Rico, Saba, Saint Kitts and Trinidad and Tobago. It is also found on the Galápagos islands of Santa Cruz and San Cristóbal, where it was likely introduced by humans.
