Pandorea pandorana subsp. timorensis

Description

Differt a speciminibus malayanis floribus comparate magnis (2-3 cm longis, lobis inch), stamini-bus atque stylo exsertis, ceterum ore atque tubo floris barbis longis destitutis. Stamens and style exserted.

Distribution

Asia-Tropical, Lesser Sunda Is present, Timor present
Malesia: Lesser Sunda Is. (Timor); 4 collections.

Notes

Though undoubtedly P. pandorana, the Timor race deviates within the species by lacking the usual beard in the mouth and tube of the corolla and in the genus by exserted stamens and style. It is remarkable that the specimens from Lombok and Flores do not belong to this subspecies but agree with the Moluccan specimens.
