Yoruba plant name
Ako-rere
Ako-rere is a Yoruba plant name that published sources map to more than one species: Senna obtusifolia and Trichilia monadelpha. Sanko does not resolve it to a single taxon.
Sources disagree
Two or more published surveys record Ako-rere against different species. Both readings are shown below with their sources. Sanko keeps the name unresolved rather than choosing between them.
