Dear friends, While compiling names of *Ipomoea mauritiana* Jacq. and *Ziziphus mauritiana * Lam. - want to make sure that *mauritiana *is of or from: Mauritania (country in w Africa) AND not to be confused with Mauritius (island in Indian Ocean)
*Ipomoea mauritiana *has: 1) one name - Mauritanian convolvulus ... NPGS / GRIN<http://www.ars-grin.gov/cgi-bin/npgs/html/taxon.pl?311648> 2) its origins ... uncertain, but it has been recorded in West Africa, including in Gambia and the riparian forests of Benin ... Wikipedia<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ipomoea_mauritiana> Both Gambia and Benin are neighbouring countries of Mauritania. BUT when looking up for *Ziziphus mauritiana*, do not find it pertaining in any way to Mauritania (nor Mauritius). Can someone help me ? Regards.
