''Ficus verruculosa'', the water fig, is a species of fig from sub-saharan Africa. It is found from north eastern South Africa, northern Botswana and Namibia to Uganda and west to Nigeria in riverine and swamp fringes or grassland, always near water.〔http://www.zimbabweflora.co.zw/speciesdata/species.php?species_id=120450〕 It is pollinated by the wasp ''Platyscapa binghami''.〔http://www.figweb.org/Ficus/Subgenus_Urostigma/Section_Urostigma/Subsection_Urostigma/Ficus_verruculosa.htm〕 The growth form of ''Ficus verruculosa'' is as a shrub, or weak-stemmed, sparsely branched shrub 0.2-0.6 m tall, less often a small tree up to 12m, often forming low, creeping thickets. Leaves oblong to lanceolate, 3.5-20 x 1.5-8.5 cm, leathery, hairless. Figs are produced mostly in pairs in leaf axils, greenish when unripe, ripening to red〔http://www.ville-ge.ch/musinfo/bd/cjb/africa/details.php?langue=an&id=24157〕 and are fed on by African green pigeons ''Treron calvus''.〔"Fig-eating by vertebrate frugivores: a global review", Mike Shanahan, Samson So, Stephen G.
