Abstract

We present here the rediscovery of Passiflora auriculata Kunth and P. cisnana Harms in Maranhão state, northeastern Brazil, and new reports of occurrence of those species in Alagoas state, northeastern Brazil, and Tocantins state, northern Brazil. We provide taxonomic information, distribution maps, and conservation status of both species, thereby contributing to increasing knowledge on Passifloraceae in those states.
