About

Savannosiphon is a flowering plant genus in the family Iridaceae, circumscribed in 1980. It contains a single species, Savannosiphon euryphylla, native to tropical Africa (Zaire, Tanzania, Malawi, Mozambique, and Zimbabwe).

The genus name, derived from the word "savanna" and the Greek word siphon (meaning "tube") alludes to its habitat and the structure of its perianth tube.
