“…A plant of L. dasyantha in cultivation appeared to have both staminate and pistillate flowers on the same inflorescence. All species of Lictiala and jolianttesteijsmaunia have hermaphrodite flowers, as far as is known (Saw et al 2003). However, there have been some suggestions in the literature of dioecy in Licúala (e.g.…”

“…Licúala are distributed from Bhutan and northeastern India throughout southeastern Asia and into the western Pacific. The two main centers of diversity are the Sunda Shelf in Malaysian Peninsula and Borneo with about 80 species, and the Sahul Shelf on the island of New Guinea with about 40 species (Saw et al 2003). More recently, Vietnam has been found to be a third center of diversity, and 11 new species have been added to the 10 species that are currently recognized (Henderson et al 2008).…”

A recent phylogenetic study based on molecular data indicates that Licúala (Arecaceae: Palmae) is not monophyletic. A highly supported group of species is resolved separately from Licúala and the rest of the Livistoninae, and is closely related to Joliannesteijsniannia, requiring that the segregate group be placed in a new genus. In this study, a phylogeny based on seven gene regions resolves highly supported generic relationships of the Livistoninae. A survey of Licúala specimens from several herbaria indicates that, based on morphology, eight species should be recognized within this genus. A complete description of the new genus, Lanonia, is given. A review of morphology distinguishes synapomorphies in leaf morphology and dioecy of Lanonia species. All eight species are described with complete synonymy, their distributions are mapped, and lists of specimens examined are given. One species occurs in Hainan, one in Java, and six are endemic or nearly endemic to Vietnam. The following new combinations are made: L.

“…With more than 150 species, Licuala is the most diverse of the coryphoid genera, containing three subgenera mainly based on androecial characters (Furtado, 1940; Saw, Dransfield & Keith‐Lucas, 2003). Barfod, Burholt & Borchsenius (2003) conducted a comparative study of the reproductive ecology of three species of Licuala (Trachycarpeae Satake, Livistoninae Saakov) in Peninsular Thailand.…”

The structure and late development of the flowers of the South-East Asian bee-pollinated palm Licuala peltata are described with special focus on the architecture of the unusual labyrinthine nectaries. The nectaries are derived from septal nectaries by extensive convolution of the carpel flank surfaces below the ovary throughout the inner floral base, thus also encompassing the inner surface of the corolla-androecium tube. A comparison with septal nectaries elsewhere in Arecaceae and with labyrinthine nectaries in other monocots shows that labyrinthine nectaries situated below the ovary, as described here, are not known from any other palms, but are similar to those of a few Bromeliaceae and, less strongly convoluted, some Haemodoraceae and Xanthorrhoeaceae. In addition, the substantial participation of parts other than the gynoecium in the nectary architecture of Licuala appears unique at the level of monocots.
