Rhapis
''Rhapis'' is a genus of about 10 species of small Arecaceae, palms native to southeastern Asia from southern Japan and southern China south to Sumatra. The species are commonly known as lady palms. They are List of Arecaceae genera#Tribe Trachycarpeae, fan palms (subfamily Coryphoideae), with the leaf, leaves with a bare petiole terminating in a rounded fan of numerous leaflets. The plants have thin stems growing to 3–4 m tall, branching at the base, forming clumps and are dioecious, with male and female flowers produced on separate plants. Cultivation and uses Several species are cultivated as ornamental plants, of which ''Rhapis excelsa'' is the most common. ''Rhapis excelsa'' and some other species are relatively cold tolerant and can be grown outdoors in subtropical or warm temperate climates. ''Rhapis excelsa'' was listed by NASA as one of the best plants for removing toxins from the air. References

Rhapis Excelsa
''Rhapis excelsa'', also known as broadleaf lady palm or bamboo palm, is a species of fan palm (Arecaceae subfamily Coryphoideae, tribe Trachycarpeae) in the genus ''Rhapis.'' It is native to southern China and northern Vietnam. The genus name is Greek - ''rhapis'', meaning "needle"; and the species name is Latin for "tall", though ''R. excelsa'' is not the tallest in the genus. Description ''Rhapis excelsa'' grows up to 4 m in height and 30 mm in diameter in multi-stemmed clumps with glossy, palmate evergreen leaves divided into broad, ribbed segments. Leaf segments are single or few in young plants and increase to a dozen or more in mature plants; segments are divided to the petiole. Leaf-ends are saw-toothed unlike most other palms, occurring on slender petioles ranging from 20 to 60 cm in length. New foliage emerges from a fibrous sheath which remains attached to the base. As the plants age, the sheaths fall, revealing the bamboo-like trunks. This usually dioeciou ...

List Of Arecaceae Genera
This is a list of all the genera in the botanical family Arecaceae, the palm family, based on Baker & Dransfield (2016), which is a revised listing of genera given in the 2008 edition of '' Genera Palmarum''. Taxonomy This is a list of all the genera in the botanical family Arecaceae, the palm family, arranged by tribes and subtribes within the family. '' Genera Palmarum'' (2008) lists 183 genera. '' Lanonia'', '' Saribus'', and the monotypic genera '' Jailoloa'', '' Wallaceodoxa'', '' Manjekia'', and '' Sabinaria'', which were described after 2008, have also been included below. ''Ceratolobus'', ''Daemonorops'', ''Pogonotium'', '' Wallichia'', ''Lytocaryum'', and the monotypic genera ''Retispatha'', ''Pritchardiopsis'', and ''Solfia'' have since been removed from ''Genera Palmarum'' (2008) as obsolete genera. This brings the total number of genera to 181 as of 2016. Phylogenetic tree of Arecaceae. Subfamily Calamoideae *Tribe Eugeissoneae **'' Eugeissona'' – Borneo, Mala ...

Arecaceae
The Arecaceae () is a family (biology), family of perennial plant, perennial, flowering plants in the Monocotyledon, monocot order Arecales. Their growth form can be climbing palm, climbers, shrubs, tree-like and stemless plants, all commonly known as palms. Those having a tree-like form are colloquially called palm trees. Currently, 181 Genus, genera with around 2,600 species are known, most of which are restricted to tropics, tropical and subtropics, subtropical climates. Most palms are distinguished by their large, compound, evergreen leaves, known as fronds, arranged at the top of an unbranched stem, except for the Hyphaene genus, who has branched palms. However, palms exhibit an enormous diversity in physical characteristics and inhabit nearly every type of Habitat (ecology), habitat within their range, from rainforests to deserts. Palms are among the best known and most extensively Horticulture, cultivated plant families. They have been important to humans throughout much ...

Coryphoideae
The Coryphoideae is one of five subfamilies in the palm family, Arecaceae. It contains all of the genera with palmate leaves, excepting '' Mauritia'', '' Mauritiella'' and '' Lepidocaryum,'' all of subfamily Calamoideae, tribe Lepidocaryeae, subtribe Mauritiinae. However, all Coryphoid palm leaves have induplicate (V-shaped) leaf folds (excepting '' Guihaia''), while Calamoid palms have reduplicate (inverted V-shaped) leaf folds. Pinnate leaves do occur in Coryphoideae, in '' Phoenix'', '' Arenga'', '' Wallichia'' and bipinnate in '' Caryota''. Coryphoids are well-represented in the fossil record from the Late Cretaceous ( Campanian) onwards, primarily due to the presence of the form genus '' Sabalites''. __TOC__ Classification Subfamily Coryphoideae is divided into 8 tribes: * Sabaleae ** '' Sabal'' * Cryosophileae ** '' Schippia'' ** '' Trithrinax'' ** '' Zombia'' ** '' Coccothrinax'' ** '' Hemithrinax'' ** '' Thrinax'' ** '' Chelyocarpus'' ** '' Cryosophila'' * ...

Genus
Genus (; : genera ) is a taxonomic rank above species and below family (taxonomy), family as used in the biological classification of extant taxon, living and fossil organisms as well as Virus classification#ICTV classification, viruses. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. ''Panthera leo'' (lion) and ''Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomy (biology), taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants of an ancestral taxon are grouped together (i.e. Phylogeneti ...
