"Tiru-tali, Rheed. Mal. xi. p. 109 t. 53 [i.e. H. Van Rheede, Hort. Malabar. 11: 109, t. 53 (1692)] is certainly this plant, though quoted for Convolvulus maximus..."
-
nom. illeg., nom. superfl., as the name is based on the same type as Convolvulus marginatus Desr. The epithet marginata was available in Ipomoea in 1824 and thus ought to have been adopted by Roxburgh.
