Evolvulus linifolius View in CoL L. (1762) 392; Miq. (1856) 628
Miquel (1856) reports this species for Timor, indicating E. javanicus Blume as a synonym. According to Van Ooststroom (1934) Evolvulus linifolius L. (syn. Evolulus alsinoides var. linifolius (L.) Baker) occurs mainly in Africa, Madagascar and Yemen, and not in Asia. No specimens from Timor were found that could agree with Miquel, and given the difficulty of separating the varieties of Evolvulus alsinoides , it could be that this was a case of confusion between var. linifolius and var. javanicus .
