Name Meaning & Origin
"Attalea is a large genus of palms native to Mexico, the Caribbean, Central and South America"
Data last updated: 2025 SSA records
Attalea is a large genus of palms native to Mexico, the Caribbean, Central and South America. This pinnately-leaved, non-spiny genus includes both small palms without an aboveground stem and large trees. The genus has a complicated taxonomic history and has often been divided into four or five genera based on differences in male flowers. Since the genera can only be distinguished on the basis of their male flowers, the existence of intermediate flower types and the existence of hybrids between different genera has been used as an argument for keeping them all in the same genus. This has been supported by recent molecular phylogenies.
