“…Our present revision of the taxa presented above has been mostly based on materials and data collected in four botanical expeditions, conducted from 2008 to 2017 and specially focused on the species of series Laurifoliae and their distribution in French Guiana. Here, we shall compare the descriptions of P. tinifolia by Jussieu (1805) and by Hooker et al (1857), P. oblongifolia by Pulle (1906), P. gabrielleana by Vanderplank & Laurens (2006), P. favardensis by Kuethe (2011), and P. laurifolia by Rome & Coppens d'Eeckenbrugge (2018). Furthermore, we compared our field measurements of living specimens of P. gabrielleana with our analyses of the herbarium specimens cited in the descriptions of P. oblongifolia by Pulle (1906), P. tinifolia by Jussieu (1805) and P. gabrielleana by Vanderplank & Laurens (2006).…”

Within the series Laurifoliae of subgenus Passiflora, the binomial Passiflora laurifolia L. historically has four synonyms: Granadilla laurifolia; P. oblongifolia Pulle, described from Suriname and known only from the type; P. tinifolia Juss. described from the Island of Cayenne (French Guiana), and P. laurifolia var. tinifolia, considered to be a small fruited variety of P. laurifolia. The more recently described P. gabrielleana Vanderpl. and P. favardensis Kuethe, both from French Guiana, also share many traits with these taxa. Four expeditions to French Guiana, from 2008 to 2017, have shown that P. laurifolia, as described in the last revision of this species, is only represented there by a few cultivated individuals introduced from the West Indies. In contrast, P. gabrielleana is commonly found along rivers and coasts, and in wet ditches, especially on the Island of Cayenne where P. tinifolia was considered to be common by Antoine de Jussieu. Likewise, herbarium and field data show us that P. gabrielleana is also present in neighboring regions of Brazil and Suriname. The very common presence of P. gabrielleana on the locus classicus of P. tinifolia, the absence of spontaneous forms of P. laurifolia in French Guiana, and the many similarities between these species, lead us to resuscitate the name of P. tinifolia and to place P. gabrielleana, P. favardensis, P. oblongifolia and P. laurifolia var. tinifolia as synonyms for this species. Thence, only Granadilla laurifolia is maintained as a synonym of P. laurifolia. RÉSUMÉPassiflora tinifolia Juss. (Passiflora sousgenre Passiflora) : résurrection et synonymies. Dans la série Laurifoliae du sous-genre Passiflora, le nom Passiflora laurifolia L. possède quatre synonymes : P. oblongifolia Pulle, décrite du Suriname et connue seulement du type, P. tinifolia Juss. décrite de l'île de Cayenne, P. laurifolia var. tinifolia, considérée comme variété à petits fruits de P. laurifolia ou Granadilla laurifolia. Plus récemment, P. gabrielleana Vanderpl. et P. favardensis Kuethe ont été décrites de Guyane Française et partagent de nombreux traits avec ces taxons. Quatre expéditions en Guyane Française, de 2008 à 2017, ont montré que P. laurifolia, comme décrite dans la dernière révision de l'espèce, n'y est représentée que par quelques individus cultivés, introduits des Antilles. A l'inverse, P. gabrielleana est régulièrement trouvée le long des fleuves et des côtes, et dans des fossés humides, en particulier sur l'île de Cayenne où P. tinifolia était considérée comme commune par Antoine de Jussieu. Les données de terrain et d'herbiers nous montrent que P. gabrielleana est également présente dans les régions voisines du Brésil et du Suriname. La grande fréquence de P. gabrielleana sur le locus classicus de P. tinifolia, l'absence de formes spontanées de P. laurifolia, et les nombreuses similarités entre ces taxons nous poussent à ressusciter le nom de P. tinifolia et à placer P. gabrielleana, P. favardensis, P. oblongifolia et P. laurifolia var. tinifolia en synonymie.
