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