Abstract
Ipomoea costellata var. edwardsensis, var. nov., is described, illustrated, and mapped. It apparently is endemic to the Edwards Plateau region of Texas, where it is known from six counties. It is set apart from I. costellata elsewhere in its range by its combination of shorter peduncles and bright white, nearly rotate flowers with fewer and deeper lobes.Suggested Citation
