Ceroxylon parvifrons, also known as the Golden wax palm is a species of Ceroxylon from Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia. [1]
Wax palm can refer to several species of palms:
Iriartea is a genus in the palm family Arecaceae, native to Central and South America. The best-known species – and probably the only one – is Iriartea deltoidea, which is found from Nicaragua, south into Bolivia and a great portion of Western Amazonian basin. It is the most common tree in many forests in which it occurs. It is known by such names as bombona or cacho de vaca. In the Murui Huitoto language of southwestern Colombia, it is called jɨagɨna or jɨaìgɨna, in western Ecuador it is known as pambil and in Peru it is known as the pona palm.
Ceroxylon quindiuense, often called Quindío wax palm, is a palm native to the humid montane forests of the Andes in Colombia and northern Peru.
The Cocora valley is a valley in the department of Quindío in the country of Colombia. It is located in the Central Cordillera of the Andean mountains. "Cocora" was the name of a Quimbayan princess, daughter of the local chief Acaime, and means "star of water".
Calymene Brongniart, 1822, is a genus of trilobites in the order Phacopida, suborder Calymenina, that are found throughout North America, North Africa, and Europe in primarily Silurian outcrops. Calymene is closely related to Flexicalymene, and both genera are frequently found enrolled. Calymene trilobites are small, typically 2 cm in length. The cephalon is the widest part of the animal and the thorax usually has 13 segments.
Ceroxylon alpinum, also known as the Andean wax palm is a species of palm tree native to Colombia, Ecuador, and Venezuela. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Ceroxylon is a genus of flowering plant in the family Arecaceae, native to the Andes in Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia, known as Andean wax palms.
Ceroxylon amazonicum is a species of palm tree. It is endemic to Ecuador. There are only four known populations. The species is threatened by deforestation.
Ceroxylon echinulatum, also known as the Pumbo wax palm is a species of flowering plant in the family Arecaceae. It is found only in Ecuador and Peru. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests in the Andes. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Ceroxylon sasaimae, also known as the Sasaima wax palm is a species of flowering plant in the family Arecaceae. It is found only in Colombia. It is threatened by habitat loss.
The Flora of Colombia is characterized by 130,000 species of plants that have been described within Colombian territory.
Elliptocephala is an extinct genus from a well-known class of fossil marine arthropods, the trilobites. It lived from the later part of the Tommotian to the upper Botomian. Elliptocephala can easily be confused with Ellipsocephalus, a trilobite genus of the Ptychopariida order.
Gloria Amparo Galeano Garcés was a Colombian botanist and agronomist specializing in the palm family. Galeano was a faculty member at the National University of Colombia, and was the director of the Institute of Natural Sciences from 2003 to 2006. She received her Ph.D. from the University of Aarhus, Denmark in 1997.
Peronopsis is a genus of trilobite restricted to the Middle Cambrian. Its remains have been found in Asia, Australia, Europe, and North America.
Ceroxylon vogelianum, also known as the Vogels wax palm is a palm native to the Andes from Venezuela south to Peru in humid montane forest, at an elevation of 1900 – 2900 meters.
Hypsirhynchus is a genus of snakes of the subfamily Dipsadinae. Species of this genus are found in Jamaica, Hispaniola, and the Bahamas.
The Magdalena Valley montane forests (NT0136) is an ecoregion in the Andes mountains of central Colombia.
Ceroxylon peruvianum is a species of palm tree. It is endemic to Peru.
Ceroxylon ceriferum, also known as the Sacred wax palm is a species of Ceroxylon from Colombia and Venezuela.
Ceroxylon ventricosum, also known as the Ecuadorian wax palm is a species of Ceroxylon from Colombia and Ecuador.
