Marojejya insignis is a species of flowering plant in the palm family Arecaceae. It is found only in Madagascar. It is threatened by habitat loss. It is most noteworthy for unusual leaves in which a proximal (inner) portion is entire, while the distal (outer) portion is divided into leaflets. It was described by Humbert in 1955. [2]
