Discussion
Passiflora arizonica is known only from portions of Pima and Santa Cruz counties, Arizona, and eastern Sonora, and has been confused with P. arida (D. H. Goldman 2003). It flowers during the summer rainy season, usually August and September. Unlike most other members of the genus, particularly those of sect. Dysosmia, to which it belongs, P. arizonica flowers in the evening, closing around midnight. The fragrant flowers have a deep floral cup, and may be pollinated by nocturnal moths.
