Uvariopsis tripetala
Dennettia is a monotypic genus (i.e. a genus containing a single species) of plants in the custard apple family Annonaceae. The sole included species is Dennettia tripetala, a shrub or tree native to western and west-central tropical Africa, including Guinea, Sierra Leone, Ghana, Nigeria, and Cameroon. It is threatened by habitat loss.
The leaves of D. tripetala may be dried and kept for a very long time without succumbing to microbial growth. U. tripetala fruits can be used as food and herbs to make herbal remedies, according to Okwu and Morah. The pepper fruit's fruits, leaves, and roots are all used in traditional medicine preparations.
