Ischnosiphon is a genus of plants native to Central America, South America, Trinidad and the Lesser Antilles.[3] It was first described as a genus in 1859.[4][2][5][6][7]
Ischnosiphon species are traditionally used for weaving. In Suriname, the stems of several Ischnosiphon species, known locally as warimbo, are used for weaving baskets.[8] Similarly, in Peru, several species of Ischnosiphon including I. puberulus, I. arouma, and I. obliquus, known locally as huarumá (Spanish) and dexpe (Ticuna), are culturally important for making traditional fabric.[9][10]
