Discussion
Plants of Ipomoea lacunosa are sometimes confused with plants of I. × leucantha, which are derived from hybridization between I. lacunosa and I. cordatotriloba (D. F. Austin and W. E. Abel 1981). Seeds of Ipomoea lacunosa are 5–6 mm and seeds of I. × leucantha are 3.2–4 mm.
Reports of Ipomoea lacunosa for Ontario, California, and New York are apparently based on waifs.
