The present revision of the genus Passiflora L. (Passifloraceae Juss. ex Roussel) updates the Guianese checklist of 2014 with recent collecting data and taxonomic and nomenclatural advances concerning French Guiana. It recognizes 44 passionflower taxa, including 27 taxa of subgenus Passiflora L., six taxa of subgenus Decaloba (DC.) Rchb., one taxon of subgenus Deidamioides (Harms) Killip, and ten taxa of subgenus Astrophea (DC.) Mast. Seven names are typified and others are annotated as doubtful and/or controversial, in the perspective of a future monograph on passionflowers of French Guiana. Nine species appear to be endemic to French Guiana.
