Nomenclatural Comment
It is very likely specimens of I have been errorously called P. polyandra in NZ. The Chinese flora says P. polyandra has 6-9 connate carpels whil. acinosa has 7-8 distinct carpels. This means P. polyandra berries, when ripe, are fused and look like single berries while the P. acinosa ones look like separate ones.
