Catalogue of life gives three subspecies out of which two are found in India, as per below: Xenostegia tridentata subsp. angustifolia (Jacq.) J. Lejoly & S. Lisowski (Saudi Arabia (Asir), South Africa (Limpopo, North-West Prov., Gauteng, Mpulamanga, Free State, KwaZulu-Natal, N-Cape Prov.), Swaziland, Namibia, Botswana, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Malawi, Mozambique, Angola, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Zanzibar, Senegal, Gambia, Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Ivory Coast, Burkina Faso, Ghana, Togo, Benin, Nigeria, Central African Republic, Cameroon, Congo (Brazzaville), Guinea-Bissau, Gabon, Chad, Sudan, South Sudan, Sao Tome, Burkina Faso, Mali, Mauritania, Ethiopia, Comores (Mayotte, etc.), Madagascar, peninsular Malaysia, Indochina, trop. Asia, India, Sri Lanka, China, Hongkong, Taiwan, Sumatra, Java, Borneo, Sulawesi, Philippines, Lesser Sunda Isl., Moluccas, New Guinea, Australia, Palau Isl. (I) (Babeldaob (I))) Xenostegia tridentata subsp. tridentata (China (Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan, Yunnan), Taiwan, Cambodia, India (Bengal), Bangladesh, Indonesia, Laos, Myanmar [Burma] (Mandalay, Taninthayi, Yangon), New Guinea, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Vietnam, Australia (Western Australia, Northern Territory, Queensland), Puerto Rico (I), peninsular Malaysia, Borneo (Natuna Isl., Anambas Isl.), Sumatra (Bangka Isl.), Sulawesi, Moluccas (Aru Isl.), Lakshadweep Isl. (Laccadives), Christmas Isl. (Australia)) Xenostegia tridentata var. pubescens Rendle (Caprivi Strip, Botswana, Zambia, Mozambique, Kenya, Tanzania) I could not find the difference on net among two subspecies found in India. Based on the distribution, our observations at Xenostegia tridentata may be of Xenostegia tridentata subsp. angustifolia (Jacq.) J. Lejoly & S. Lisowski I will correct our page, after getting feedback in this regard, if any. Can anybody give the distinction between the two subspecies ? On further checking, however, Flora of peninusular India says that Both subspecies are found in south India as per Merremia tridentata subsp. hastata (syn. of Xenostegia tridentata subsp. angustifolia (Jacq.) J. Lejoly & S. Lisowski) Book at Merremia tridentata subsp. hastata says in note that subsp. tridentata also occurs in S. India but has leaves and outer sepal obtuse- emarginate. However details at Merremia tridentata subsp. hastata and Merremia tridentata subsp. tridentata seem to be contradictory. Flora of China gives M. tridentata subsp. hastata (H. Hallier) van Ooststroom as a syn. of Xenostegia tridentata (Linnaeus) D. F. Austin & Staples subsp. angustifolia photographs I have seen from Africa ...leaves show an extreme of change in length and width. I do not remember seeing a post with that extreme variation. There is variation in corolla color too...near white to deep yellow, and corolla center with or without maroon color. There is X. tridentata subsp. alatipes with winged pedicel and winged outer lobes of calyx. There is one more variant with lot of hairs. I shall go through the posts here and on facebook. WCSP further confuses the matter as it accepts all these subspecies as below: Xenostegia tridentata subsp. angustifolia (Jacq.) Lejoly & Lisowski, Fragm. Florist. Geobot. 38: 379 (1993). (Trop. & S. Africa) Xenostegia tridentata (L.) D.F.Austin & Staples, Brittonia 32: 533 (1980 publ. 1981). (Trop. & Subtrop. Old World including India and Srilanka) Xenostegia tridentata subsp. hastata (Ooststr.) Parmar, J. Econ. Taxon. Bot. 18: 251 (1994). (SE. China to Trop. Asia and Caroline Is. including Assam, India and Srilanka) Leaves are very variable. I perused posts in Indian Flora ... lot of variation, sometimes extreme. Today I visited the species ...uploading one image. So much variation in one vine … Attachments (1) - 2 mb. One more. Attachments (1) - 1 mb. One more ... Please see them zooming in. In the meantime, Flora of Karnataka says var hastata has obtuse or emarginate leaftip, var tridentata has acute, mucuronate tip ... Specimen I saw has no emarginate leaf,(but I think I have seen them too) but leaf variation suggests any such classification is going to be a fruitless exercise. I shall show fb posts with extreme variation later. Attachments (1) - 2 mb. Thanks, … This is contradictory to Book at Merremia tridentata subsp. hastata which says in note that subsp. tridentata also occurs in S. India but has leaves and outer sepal obtuse- emarginate. Ok, so I made a mistake again and reversed the characters in describing subspecies. I am getting sloppy. Any way, nowhere is the mention of leaf tip trifid with variable width between 3 points, occuring with other leaves having simple acute mucuronate tip. My point is, many specimen need to be examined before settling this debate. 3 images. Leaves from one stem ! I went through the detailed article by D. F. Austin who separated it from Merremia and gave it the name "Xenostegia". He talks about African population and Asian population of this species, and goes on to say, in Srilanka and in South India. both African and Asian types are found and this is because this species was a very important medicinal plant, that is why it moved with trade and traders. In whole long paper, he never talks about subspecies and varieties. Ana Rita Simoes, and George Staples in their works acknowledge lot of variations,(even word 'polymorphic' has been used), but refuse to divide this Taxon into inferior taxa. Thanks, ... When were these publications made? Sir, soon I shall upload relevant pages in screen shot with details and links.
2007
Staples in 2017 https://academic.oup.com/botlinnean/article/183/4/561/3739737 In 2019 May , A R Simoes has published her work on Xenostegia , unfortunately that paper is not available online ...only abstract Thanks a lot, ... Wonderful !!! Very recent work. It lists all subspecies under Xenostegia tridentata only.

I wish to see a full leaf with its base and petiole from this specimen. I hope you have it in your raw images. Please show it for me. Here attached is original size picture in which we can see base of few leaves. I do not click raw, just old style JPEGs. It works easy for me. The original pic is more than 8 MB. Let me crop it at places where we see the leaves. Will send the cropped pics tomorrow. Thanks, ... Leaf in your photos are much different than leaf I see in my area. Variety and subspecies were described based on leaf and calyx. Now this genus is revised, yet to see that paper. Here are two cropped versions of the original picture. The cropped versions are not resized, so what you are seeing are part of original sized photograph. I hope you are able to see the hastate leaves almost amplexicaule, in both pictures, and hope they help you in your analysis. Attachments (2) Sir, thanks a lot. These leaves are just like leaves from Africa belonging to subsp. angustifolia. Here in Surat I see leaves with single tip as well as tridentate tip, lamina long or short. Seeing the wire mesh I just thought I should bring one plant home and grow it in balcony !!! and what is the larger leaf? Larger leaves are of some other vine. I could see no flower or fruit. OK thanks

OK thanks Thanks, ... We had a nice discussions in this matter at Xenostegia tridentata subspecies Latest taxonomic scrutiny, lists all subspecies under Xenostegia tridentata only. Recently I had been to Baroda. Within City limits, I saw this plant thriving. Again I noticed, many variations of leaf shape, size and ''teeth'' on same branch. I think it is environmental triggers that lead to formation of different types of leaf, as the branch keeps growing. Keeping an all inclusive single entity is the right thing Authors did. References:
