Abstract:

Studies on New World Ipomoea have resulted in the following changes in Ipomoea section Calonyction: the recognition of I. skutchii sp. nov., the exclusion of two species previously included in the section, I. tastensis and I. violacea, and the reinstatement of I. santillanii. Considerations on character weighting are presented.
