Almost all research on superintegrable potentials concerns spaces of constantcurvature. In this paper we find by exhaustive calculation, all superintegrablepotentials in the four Darboux spaces of revolution that have at least twointegrals of motion quadratic in the momenta, in addition to the Hamiltonian.These are two-dimensional spaces of nonconstant curvature. It turns out thatall of these potentials are equivalent to superintegrable potentials in complexEuclidean 2-space or on the complex 2-sphere, via "coupling constantmetamorphosis" (or equivalently, via Staeckel multiplier transformations).
