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