=== ''Convolvulus prostratus'' ===
''[[Convolvulus prostratus]]'' Forssk. (synonym: ''Convolvulus microphyllus'' Sieber ex Spreng.) occurs in northern Africa and the Sahel east to western Asia. In tropical Africa no medicinal use has been recorded so far, but in India it is commonly used in Ayurvedic medicine, mainly as an anti-epileptic. A paste of the leaves in milk is taken to treat spermatorrhoea. In Senegal it is not grazed but in Mauritania it is considered good fodder for all cattle.
