Subspecies 3 (2 in the flora).

Subspecies silvatica is native to eastern Mediterranean Europe; it has corollas (50–)55–75(–88) mm, stamens (25–)28–36(–39) mm, and bract apices emarginate to truncate.

Intermediates between Calystegia silvatica and C. sepium may be due to ancient or recent hybridization.
