Coarticulated pulmonic consonants

ʍ Voiceless labial-velar fricative (approximant)
w Labial-velar approximant (semivowel)
ɥ Labial-palatal approximant (semivowel)
ɕ ʑ Alveolo-palatal fricatives
ɺ Alveolar lateral flap
ɧ Supposedly, simultaneous ʃ and x. In practice, mostly used for a macrophoneme of Swedish varying from [fʷ] to [ʂ] to [χ].
Affricates and double articulations can be represented by two symbols joined by a tie bar if necessary.
