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.

Subtribe
Subtribe is a taxonomic category ranking which is below the rank of tribe and above genus. The standard suffix for a subtribe is -ina (in animals) or -inae (in plants). The first use of this word dates back to the late 19th century. An example of a subtribe is Hyptidinae, a group of flowering plant Flowering plants are plants that bear flowers and fruits, and form the clade Angiospermae (). The term angiosperm is derived from the Ancient Greek, Greek words (; 'container, vessel') and (; 'seed'), meaning that the seeds are enclosed with ...s that contains 19 genera divided into about 400 species.

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 ...

Lepidocaryum
''Lepidocaryum'' is a monotypic genus of flowering plant in the palm family from South America where the lone species, ''Lepidocaryum tenue'', is commonly called poktamui. Nine species names have been published, but palm taxonomists currently agree that just one variable species includes them all.Riffle, Robert L. and Craft, Paul (2003) ''An Encyclopedia of Cultivated Palms''. Portland: Timber Press. / The most reduced member of the Lepidocaryeae, it is similar in appearance to two closely related genera, ''Mauritia'' and '' Mauritiella'', as well as to the former genus ''Lytocaryum'' (now included in '' Syagrus'').Uhl, Natalie W. and Dransfield, John (1987) ''Genera Palmarum - A classification of palms based on the work of Harold E. Moore''. Lawrence, Kansas: Allen Press. / The genus name combines the Greek words for "scale" and "nut" and the species epithet is Latin for "thin".
