Buckollia volubilis is a species of plant in the Apocynaceae family. It is native to the Ethiopia, Kenya, Somalia, Tanzania and Uganda.[3] Rudolf Schlechter,[4] the botanist who first formally described the species, named it after its twining (volubilis in Latin) growth habit, using the synonymous name Raphionacme volubilis.[5][6]
