The usually lobed leaves (they are not however always lobed in Old World 

 specimens, and do not seem to be so in American ones) and the funnel-shaped 

 corolla-tube distinguish this species very well. The reversal of the leaf-character 

 in this, as compared with I. hona-nox, is worth mentioning : in that species it is in 

 America that the leaves may be either lobed or entire, but are usually lobed ; wild 

 specimens of the Asiatic form of the " true Moon-flower " seem never to have lobed 

 leaves.
