Calamus is a genus of flowering plants in the palm family Arecaceae that is one of several genera known as rattan palms. There are an estimated 400 species in this genus, all native to tropical and subtropical Asia, Africa, and Australia.
Adenia is a genus of flowering plants in the passionflower family Passifloraceae. It is distributed in the Old World tropics and subtropics. The centers of diversity are in Madagascar, eastern and western tropical Africa, and Southeast Asia. The genus name Adenia comes from "aden", reported as the Arabic name for the plant by Peter Forsskål, the author of the genus.
Livistona is a genus of palms, the botanical family Arecaceae, native to southeastern and eastern Asia, Australasia, and the Horn of Africa. They are fan palms, the leaves with an armed petiole terminating in a rounded, costapalmate fan of numerous leaflets.
Dypsis is a genus of flowering plants in the family Arecaceae. They are slender, evergreen palms with yellow flowers carried in panicles amongst the pinnate leaves. Many Dypsis species have aerial branching, a rare growth habit among palms. Some have marcescent leaves that remain attached after death and trap litter for nutrients. Several species previously placed here have been returned to the restored genera Chrysalidocarpus and Vonitra.
Vonitra antanambensis, synonym Dypsis antanambensis, is a species of flowering plant in the Arecaceae family. It is a palm endemic to Madagascar, where it grows in rainforests. The whole population occurs within Mananara-Nord National Park and there are fewer than 50 mature individuals estimated to remain.
Dypsis basilonga is a species of flowering plant in the family Arecaceae. It is endemic to Madagascar. It grows in humid, mossy habitat on mountains. It is threatened by overharvesting.
Dypsis canescens, also known as Chrysalidocarpus canescens, is a species of flowering plant in the family Arecaceae. It is endemic to the Sambirano region of northwestern Madagascar. It was identified in 1913. It is probably extinct, given that it has not been seen for half a century.
Vonitra crinita, synonym Dypsis crinita, is a species of flowering plant in the family Arecaceae. It is found only in Madagascar. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Dypsis mananjarensis is a species of flowering plant in the family Arecaceae. It is found only in Madagascar. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Dypsis nauseosa is a species of flowering plant in the family Arecaceae. It is found only in Madagascar. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Dypsis rivularis is a species of flowering plant in the Arecaceae family. It is palm endemic to Madagascar, where it grows in forests near rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss. There are fewer than 100 mature individuals estimated to remain.
Dypsis sahanofensis is a species of flowering plant in the family Arecaceae. It is found only in Madagascar. It is threatened by habitat loss.
Saribus jeanneneyi is a very rare species of palm tree in the genus Saribus. It is endemic to southern New Caledonia, where only one mature specimen, surrounded by a few seedlings, survived in its native habitat as of 1997. The cause of its rarity in the wild is because its meristem is edible.
Balaka is a genus of 11 known species in the palm family, Arecaceae or Palmae. Seven species are native to the islands of Fiji and four to Samoa. The genus was first proposed and published in Annales du Jardin Botanique de Buitenzorg 2: 91. 1885, from two species originally in the genus Ptychosperma.
Orania is a genus of the palm tree family Arecaceae, whose native is Madagascar, Malesia, and New Guinea.
Hydriastele is a diverse and widespread genus of flowering plant in the palm family found throughout northern Australia, Melanesia, Polynesia, and Southeast Asia. It consisted of just nine species until 2004, when molecular research, supported by morphologic similarities, led taxonomists to include the members of the Gulubia, Gronophyllum, and Siphokentia genera. About 40 species are now recognized.
Ceratolobus was a dioecious genus of flowering plants in the palm family found in Southeast Asia, commonly called rotan. Its species are now included within the genus Calamus. They were only differentiated from Calamus and close relatives like Korthalsia by leaf sheath appendages or inflorescence variations. The Greek genus name combines "horn" and "capsule".
Chrysalidocarpus is a valid genus of African palms, family Arecaceae, first described by Hermann Wendland in 1878. The native range of species in this genus includes the Comoros, Madagascar and Pemba Islands, but some have been naturalised elsewhere as ornamental plants. Some species previously have been placed in the genus Dypsis, including the type species Chrysalidocarpus lutescens.
Saribus is a genus of palms, native to Southeast Asia, Papuasia and Pacific Islands. They are fan palms, the leaves with an armed petiole terminating in a rounded, costapalmate fan of numerous leaflets.
