550 FIELD MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY BOTANY, VOL. XIX TYPE LOCALITY: Brazil: Upper Rio Negro. DISTRIBUTION: Known only from the type locality, in western Amazonian Brazil. BRAZIL: Amazonas: Upper Rio Negro, Weiss & Schmidt in 1907 or 1908 (Y, type). 338. Passiflora elliptica Gardn. in Hook. London Journ. Bot. 1: 173. 1842. Scandent or subscandent shrub; branches minutely puberulent; stipules linear-subulate, about 1.5 mm. long, deciduous; petioles 1.5 to 2 cm. long, biglandular at apex; leaves elliptic, 6 to 8 cm. long, 4 to 5.5 cm. wide, obtuse and often emarginate at apex, rounded at base, penninerved (lateral nerves about 7 to a side), conspicuously reticulate-veined, subcoriaceous, glabrous and lustrous above, finely pilosulous beneath, concolorous; peduncles 1 to 1.5 cm. long; bracts linear-subulate, 1 mm. long, borne near base of peduncle; flowers white; calyx tube campanulate, 4 to 7 mm. long, 3 to 4 mm. wide; sepals oblong, 1.5 to 2 cm. long, 3 to 4 mm. wide, obtuse; petals similar and subequal to the sepals; corona filaments in 2 series, the outer liguliform, 7 to 8 mm. long, the inner minute, barely 1 mm. long; operculum borne near middle of tube, membranous, about 3 mm. high, fimbrillate, the fringe 0.5 to 1 mm. long; gynophore hirsutulous at middle, otherwise glabrous; ovary ovoid, cano-sericeotomentose; fruit globose, about 2 cm. in diameter, the exocarp brittle, orange-color; seeds broadly ovoid, about 7 mm. long, 6 mm. wide, coarsely reticulate. TYPE LOCALITY: Rio Comprido, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. DISTRIBUTION: Known positively only from the State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. BRAZIL: Sello 584 (BM); St. Hilaire 135 (P). Rio de Janeiro: Rio Comprido, Gardner 46 (BM, type, Gen, K, P, V, Y); Selliers 3039 (Gen) . Corcovado, Burchell 1 838 (K) ; Miers (BM, K) Larangeiras, Glaziou 18258 (B, Brux, Cop, G, Gen, K, P). Mundo . Novo, Kuhlmann 1726 (S, Ut). The flowers of P. elliptica are smaller than in near relatives and the venation of the leaves is more evident. The outer corona filaments are not dilated as in the case of all other relatives except P. Candida, w r hich differs in many details. Kuhlmann 1726 is one of the few specimens of Pseudoastrophea that has been collected in fruit.
AMERICAN PASSIFLORACEAE 551 339. Passiflora pentagona Mast, in Mart. Fl. Bras. 13, pt. 1: 575. pi. 108, f. 2. 1872. Plant scandent or subscandent, the tendrils usually well developed; stem terete, sulcate below, glabrous or minutely puberulous above; stipules setaceous, soon deciduous; petioles 0.5 to 2 cm. long, often reflexed, obscurely biglandular at apex; leaves oblong, 5 to 10 cm. long, 3 to 5 cm. wide, rounded or acutish at apex, rounded at base, reticulate-veined, subcoriaceous, glabrous and lustrous above, glabrous or minutely puberulent beneath; peduncles 1 to 1.5 cm. long, reflexed, articulate below middle; calyx tube cylindric-campanulate, 5 to 8 mm. long, about 5 mm. wide at throat, conspicuously 5-angled, puberulent; sepals oblong, 1 to 1.5 cm. long, 4 to 6 mm. wide, obtuse; petals similar to the sepals; corona filaments in 2 series, the outer subdolabriform, about 1 cm. long, ligulate below, dilated above middle, verrucose along inner margin at point of dilation, the inner narrowly linear, clavate; operculum borne at middle of tube, erect, about 2 mm. high, filamentose in upper half; ovary oblong, tomentulous; fruit globose, about 4 cm. in diameter, the ex9carp coriaceous, brittle, yellowish; seeds ovate-oblong, about 5 mm. long, reticulate. TYPE LOCALITY: State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. ILLUSTRATION: Mart. Fl. Bras. 13, pt. 1: pi. 108, f. 2. DISTRIBUTION: Known positively only from the State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. BRAZIL: Lhotsky in 1832 (Gen). Rio de Janeiro: Rio de Janeiro, Warming 1162 (Cop, type); Dusen 5090 (G); Martins 1221 (Brux, Gen, Y); Schwacke 15667 (N); Wilkes Expedition (N). Lagda de Freitas, Ule 3798 (B). The pendulous flowers, with a definitely 5-angled tube, constitute the most striking character by which this species may be recognized. It is very close to P. rhamnifolia; all the specimens I have seen have smaller leaves, however. 340. Passiflora alliacea Barb. Rodr. Contr. Jard. Bot. Rio de Janeiro 3: 59. pi. 7. 1902. Plant scandent, the tendrils developed; stem terete, glabrous or very minutely puberulous; stipules setaceous, soon deciduous; petioles 0.5 to 1.5 cm. long, obscurely biglandular at apex; leaves oblong or ovate-oblong, 5 to 8 cm. long, 2.5 to 4 cm. wide (the lower up to 12 cm. long, 6.5 cm. wide), acute or obtusish at apex, rounded
