Guyana. 



This species is very closely allied to Passiflora Jenmani Mast. I have 

 compared 'my specimen with Masters' in the Kew Herbarium, and have 

 only found very small differences f. i. in the nerves, which are somewhat 

 stronger in Passiflora Jenmani. Moreover my plant is much more glaucous. 



The fruit, I possess, is not yet ripe, and is about 8 cM. long and 5 

 cM. broad. It does not show the three furrows, mentioned by Jussieu. 

 In all other respects, the plant so perfectly agrees with Jussieu's des- 

 cription and figure, that I do not hesitate to identify it with Passiflora 

 cirrhiflora Juss.
