However, the classification of palms has subsequently evolved, with some genera split, others merged and new ones discovered as new-to-science (Baker & Dransfield, 2016;Eiserhardt et al, 2022;Hodel et al, 2021;Pérez-Calle, Bellot et al, 2024;Sâm et al, 2023), rendering the existing synthesis incomplete. Moreover, phylogenomic methods have entirely superseded previous approaches applied to palms, through plastome sequencing Chen et al, 2022;Comer et al, 2015;Yao et al, 2023) and targeted sequencing of nuclear genes (Cano et al, 2022;Comer et al, 2016;de La Harpe et al, 2019;Eiserhardt et al, 2022;Escobar et al, 2022;Helmstetter et al, 2020;Heyduk et al, 2016;Kuhnhäuser et al, 2021;Loiseau et al, 2019;Pérez-Calle, Bellot et al, 2024;Sanín et al, 2022;Torres Jiménez et al, 2021).…”
