Acokanthera schimperi

''Acokanthera schimperi'', belonging to the family Apocynaceae, is a small tree native to eastern and central Africa as well as to Yemen.
== Uses ==
The bark, wood and roots of ''Acokanthera schimperi'' are used as an important ingredient of arrow poison in Africa. All plant parts contain acovenoside A and ouabaïne, which are cardiotonic glycosides. Its fruit is edible, and is eaten as a famine food. When ripe they are sweet but also slightly bitter. Unripe fruits have caused accidental poisoning as they are highly toxic.〔Schmelzer, G.H. & Gurib-Fakim, A. (Editors), 2008. Plant Resources of Tropical Africa 11(1). Medicinal plants 1. PROTA Foundation, Wageningen, Netherlands / Backhuys Publishers, Leiden, Netherlands / CTA, Wageningen, Netherlands. 791 pp.〕
The maned rat spreads the plant's poison on its fur and becomes poisonous.〔(African crested rat uses poison trick to foil predators )〕
It is also used in traditional African medicine.
