Passiflora foetida var. nicaraguensis merges into several other<br />
varieties, e.g., Maxoni, mayarum, and ciliata. The plant was first<br />
described in an account of the Flora of the Lancetilla Valley, Honduras,<br />
the description being derived from a specimen from that<br />
region, to which I had given the name P. hastata var. nicaraguensis.<br />
At the time this sheet was submitted to me I was inclined to separate<br />
several species from P. foetida, and had at hand a number of Nicaraguan<br />
specimens which I considered to belong to the same variety as<br />
the Lancetilla sheet. In the present treatment, in which P. foetida is<br />
taken in a broader sense, but its varieties are separated on finer lines,
