The genus Passiflora includes approximately 500 species and, as per the last two plants cited Melissa officinalis and Lippia alba), is a genus well known [178]. In the specific case of Passiflora edulis Sims., some studies have shown its anxiolytic effect when assessed through the EPM [300]. A comparative study involving two species of this genus by Dahwan et al [301] showed that, although the methanolic extract of P. edulis Sims, presented an anxiolytic effect, this effect is less potent if compared to that observed with Passiflora incarnata L.
