No differences are discernible between P. eminula and P. costata.
Masters states that P. costata is "glaberrima," but some of the specimens
he cites, such as the "Wullschlagel" collection, have the leaves
and stem finely puberulous, similar to the type of P. eminula. This
fine puberulence differs in degree in the material cited above, being
more prominent in the Guiana specimens than in the Brazilian ones.
Passiflora hydrophila, based upon a Rio Negro plant, I know only
from the description and detailed illustration accompanying it,
but it unquestionably is the same as P. costata. Type material of
P. inundata I have compared directly with the type of P. costata,
and find no differences other than the slightly larger flowers and
longer peduncles and petioles of the former.
Barbosa gives as a local name "maracuya do igapo."
this is known as "marcusa."
