Dypsis decaryi is a species of flowering plant in the Arecaceae family. It is commonly known as the triangle palm. It is indigenous to the Madagascan rainforest. Some specimens grow to a height of some 15 metres (49 ft) in the wild. It is relatively new to cultivation however, so outside its native habitat it rarely achieves anything like that height. The leaves are about 2.5 metres in length, growing almost upright from the trunk and arching gracefully outward about a metre from their tips. The leaf bases are arranged in three vertical columns set about 120 degrees apart on the main stem, forming a triangular shape in cross section. This shape has given rise to the palm's common name.
Dypsis ambanjae is a species of flowering plant in the family Arecaceae, endemic to the Madagascarian rainforests. The last specimen was collected more than 80 years ago, and it may be extinct. Although originally treated under the genus Phloga in 1933, it was published under the currently accepted nomenclature in 1995.
Dypsis confusa is a species of flowering plant in the family Arecaceae. It is found only in Madagascar. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Dypsis coursii is a species of flowering plant in the family Arecaceae. It is found only in Madagascar. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Dypsis decipiens, the Manambe palm, is a species of flowering plant in the Palm family (Arecaceae). It is found only in the central highlands of Madagascar, between Fianarantsoa and Andilamena at 1,200 to 1,700 meters elevation. The species is threatened by habitat loss, increasing frequency of fires, and over-exploitation of its seeds for the horticultural trade. Its most unique characteristic is that it commonly produces twin trunks like the letter "V", each trunk being up to 65 feet in height and up to 28 inches DBH. There can also be three trunks, or a single trunk.
