Identifying a Latex-Producing Vine in Nigeria

A researcher in Nigeria needs to identify a woody vine with opposite, entire leaves, hairy young branches, white latex, and tendrils. It covers tall trees. A friend suggested Ylang-Ylang climber (Artabotrys spp).

Expert Assessment: Flower structure is needed for definitive ID. The description matches Artabotrys (e.g., Artabotrys hexapetalus). Wait for flowering and send flower/fruit photos. Or consult a local botanical authority in Nigeria with samples for faster, accurate identification using floral morphology.
