Hello,

My impression is that the vine section in flower is that of
Ipomoea alba and not Rivea hypocrateriformis.

The frontal view of the flower alone is too similar to Ipomoea alba to
differentiate from Rivea hypocrateriformis with any definitive
certainty

sepals and fruit are often required to arrive at a definitive ID...

The upper lobes of the leaves on Rivea hypocrateriformis are more
consistently rounded than I.alba which often develops various
curvatures and angulations
The young and distal growth of Rivea seems to be covered with what
looks to be a very fine light colored felt (similar in appearance to
some of the Argyreia and Stictocardia) which is never present on
Ipomoea alba
