Wrightia antidysenterica, the coral swirl or tellicherry bark, is a flowering plant in the genus Wrightia.
Wrightia antidysenterica is sometimes confused with the species Holarrhena pubescens due to a second, taxonomically invalid publication of the name Holarrhena pubescens.
It is known in Sanskrit as kuṭaja or ambikā.
