Summary description from Wikipedia:
Passiflora xiikzodz
Passiflora xiikzodz, the xiikzodz, is a species of flowering plant in the passion flower/passion fruit family Passifloraceae, native to southeastern Mexico, Belize, and Guatemala. The specific epithet is derived from the Mayan vernacular name for the species, and means "bat-wing". It is closely related to Passiflora itzensis but attempts to cross-pollinate the two species do not result in any offspring. It is one of only two species (the other is Passiflora alata) which have eight concentric series of coronas; the most of any known plant. The coronal series are a deep purplish-black. The flowers have no petals and the sepals are green.
