Abstract

The subfamily Phytelephantoideae forms a separate evolutionary line distinguished within the palm family by a number of unusual features: monopodial flower clusters. strongly dimorphic flowers, four-parted perianth whorls and centrifugal stamen initiation. This study describes a new genus and places the former genus Palandra in synonomy under Phytelephas. Three genera, seven species and five subspecies are recognized: Ammandra dasyneura, Ammandra decasperma,a Aphandra natalia, Phytelephas aequatorialis, Phytelephas macrocarpa, Phytelephas macrocarpa ssp. schottii, Phytelephas macrocarpa ssp. tenui-caulis, Phytelephas seemannii, Phytelephas seemannii ssp. brevipes, Phytelephas tumacana. The monograph contains a broad discussion of the character complexes that are emphasized in the definition of taxa. Aspects of reproductive biology and ecology are treated. A cladistic analysis of the species relationship is presented and the results further interpreted in relation to biogeography.
