452 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY BOTANY, VOL. XIX 1.5 to 1.8 cm. long, 7 to 8 mm. wide, obtuse, dorsally awned with a short, setaceous awn, reticulate-veined, green without, white within; petals oblong-lanceolate, 1.8 to 2 cm. long, 1 cm. wide, obtuse, white; corona filaments white, in several series, those of the 2 outer narrowly liguliform, 2 to 2.5 cm. long, 0.8 mm. wide, the succeeding 2 or 3 series narrowly linear, 5 to 6 mm. long, 0.4 mm. wide; operculum 6 to 7 mm. long, nonplicate, the lower half membranous, deflexed, the upper half erect, filamentose; limen cupuliform, 1 mm. high, crenulate; ovary ovoid. TYPE LOCALITY: Susumuco, southeast of Quetame*, Cundinamarca, Colombia. DISTRIBUTION: Known only from tire type locality, in the Eastern Cordillera of Colombia, and from a specimen of uncertain origin in the Institute de La Salle, Bogota. COLOMBIA: Cundinamarca: Susumuco, southeast of Quetame", 1,200 to 1,400 meters, Pennell 1729 (Y, type). The deep lobation of the leaves is the most striking differential character between this and its near allies. The shape of the leaves is more like P. Lehmanni or P. trisulca, of the series Kermesinae. 283. Passiflora stipulata Aubl. PI. Guian. 830. pi. 325. 1775. Passiflora glauca Dryand. in Ait. Hort. Kew. 3: 308. 1789. Plant glabrous throughout; stem terete; stipules semi-ovate, 1 to 3 cm. long, 0.5 to 1 cm. wide, oblique, acute and aristulate at apex, rounded at base; petioles up to 5 cm. long, bearing 2 to 5 minute, sessile glands; leaves 5 to 8 cm. long, 7 to 10 cm. wide, 3-lobed to middle (lobes broadly ovate, 3 to 5 cm. wide, abruptly acuminate or acutish, glandular in sinuses), subpeltate and cordate at base, 5-nerved, membranous, glaucous beneath; peduncles 2 to 5 cm. long; bracts lanceolate, about 1.5 cm. long and 6 mm. wide, acute, borne at base of flower; flowers 5 to 6 cm. wide; calyx tube sessile, turbinate-campanulate; sepals oblong-lanceolate, 2.5 to 3 cm. long, 1 cm. wide, green without, paler within, keeled, the keel terminating in a mucro barely 2 mm. long; petals as long as the sepals, white; corona filaments filiform, in several series, the 2 outer as long as the petals, white, violet at base, radiate, the succeeding series much shorter, 2 to 3 mm. long, erect; operculum about 1 cm. high, filamentose nearly to base; limen tubular, closely surrounding base of gynophore; ovary ovoid, glabrous. TYPE LOCALITY: Near Mt. Serpent, French Guiana (cultivated).
AMERICAN PASSIFLORACEAE 453 ILLUSTRATIONS: Aubl. PI. Guian. pi 825; Bot. Reg. 1: pi. 88. DISTRIBUTION: French Guiana, but perhaps not indigenous there; frequently cultivated. (Y). CALIFORNIA: Pacific Beach, Kumm in 1930 (N). BERMUDA: Herrington Sound, cultivated, Brown & Britton 1729 St. George's, cultivated, Brown, Britton & Worthley 1782 (Y). CUBA: Habana: Puentes Grandes, cultivated, Le6n 639 (HS, Y). ST. THOMAS: Cultivated, Britton, Britton & Kemp 33 (Y). FRENCH GUIANA: Cultivated in England by Kennedy & Lee (K, type of P. glauca Ait.). Passiflora stipulata is the earliest described member of this group, and the name has been variously applied to a number of species. Aublet gives a meager description of only the vegetative parts, and no flowers, bracts, or peduncles are shown in his illustration. The type locality was French Guiana. Passiflora glauca, described in the Hortus Kewensis in great detail, also was based on a French Guiana plant, and there seems no reason to doubt that it is the same species as Aublet's. Indeed, in the Botanical Register (1: pi. 88. 1815) P. stipulata is given as a synonym for P. glauca. In the Flora Brasiliensis Masters separated the two species, but cited no specimens of P. stipulata. Later (Journ. Linn. Soc. 20: 44. 1883), in pointing out the distinguishing characters of P. stipulata, P. glauca, P. alba (P. subpeltata), and P. resticulata, he gave a more detailed diagnosis of P. stipulata, mentioning certain characters that would distinguish P. stipulata from P. glauca, and citing a specimen from British Guiana which he had taken for P. stipulata. However, this specimen, which I saw at Kew, is P. Garckei, so the differences noted by Masters are not between P. glauca and P. stipulata but between P. stipulata and P. Garckei. The type of P. glauca, in the British Museum, is in an excellent state of preservation, and the diagnosis given above has been drawn mainly from it, and from cultivated specimens. The region in which this species is native is uncertain. Aublet states that his plant was collected in cultivated places, a fact which suggests that it may not have been indigenous at the type locality. Cultivated specimens of this are frequent in European herbaria, their labels indicating that they came from plants grown in gardens associated with the herbaria. A plant was in full flower at the
