Discussion.— Mandevilla pristina is morphologically similar to M. assimilis (K Schum.) J.F. Morales , but differs by its leaf blades with domatia along the midrib abaxially (vs. domatia lacking) and floral bracts 10–120 mm long (vs. less than 6 mm). It was previously considered to be endemic to Perú ( Morales 2007c).
