The above twenty-two species were credited to the Philippines by Naves, 

 but none of the genera has known indigenous representatives in the Archi- 

 pelago. A few of the species in the list now occur as recently introduced 

 and cultivated forms. 



Since about 1905 a large number of palms have been introduced into 

 Manila for cultivation as ornamental species. Some of these are now 

 mature and flower and fruit freely; others have not as yet produced flowers. 

 None of them occurs outside of cultivation, and for the most part they are 

 as yet rare in cultivation. The list of these recently introduced and cul- 

 tivated palms includes such species as: Acoelorrhaphe wightii Wendl., 

 Archontophoenix alexandrae H. Wendl. & Drude, Attalea cohune HBK., 

 Chrysalidocarpus lutescens Wendl., Cocos plumosa Hook., Coccothrinax
