During the compilation of the Passifloraceae for the Catálogo de las Plantas Vasculares de Bolivia we found a new species belonging to Passiflora sect. Insignes, which we call Passiflora carrascoensis. We here present a taxonomic revision of the Passiflora sect. Insignes and ×Inkea and a brief outline of the history of the groups. The number of species in Passiflora sect. Insignes is now six, with four species endemic to Bolivia, one to Peru, and one widespread frequently cultivated species. Passiflora sect. ×Inkea consists of the hybrid Passiflora ×rosea. Four names are lectotypified.
