Yes Hibiscus vitifolia.
Here have been two extensive discussions covering 64 mails on our group why
Hibiscus vitifolia should be the correct name and not Kosteletzkya vitifolia

The simple conclusion reached was:

" My simple conclusion is that perhaps Almeida and Patil were wrong in
assigning Hibiscus vitifolia L. to genus Kostelzkya. The genus is separated
from Hibiscus in having single ovule (and seed) in each locule, whereas
Hibiscus vitifolius has 2-4 per locule as a rule. I think here lies the
answer. This leaves the validity of combination made by Almeida and Patil
without much meaning".
