Passiflora suberosa L.
CORKYSTEM PASSIONFLOWER
**
Within this group, some treatments recognize two species: P. pallida (hypanthium 2.8-4.1 mm wide, inner coronal filaments < 1.4 mm long), native to Florida, Texas, West Indies, Mexico, Central America, and Venezuela, and P. suberosa s.str. (hypanthium usually 4.0-8.8 mm wide, inner coronal filaments > 1.4 mm long) native to the West Indies, Mexico, Central and South America, with both introduced in the Old World tropics (Porter-Utley 2003, 2014). Based on an ITS phylogeny, a cultivated specimen (Porter-Utley P-65, FLAS) identified as P. pallida with provenance putatively from the Everglades fell within a strongly supported monophyletic clade of P. pallida + P. suberosa with pallida aff., while the specimen identified as "P. suberosa with pallida aff." was from Sarasota Co. (Abbott 14284, FLAS) and had four different ITS copies falling in multiple clades (Porter-Utley 2014). The use of P. suberosa s.lat. is similar to other treatments (Long & Lakela 1971; Adams 1972; Correll & Correll 1982; Proctor 1984; Bornstein in Howard 1989).
