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