Notes

The taxonomic portion is a thorough revision of the genus. It includes literature references, synonymy, complete descriptions, and specimens examined. Thrinax parviflora Sw. and T. excelsa Lodd. ex Griseb. are endemic to Jamaica while T. radiata Lodd. ex J. A. & J. H. Schult. occurs in the littoral of the Greater Antilles (except Puerto Rico), the Bahamas, Florida, and Mexico. Thrinax morrisii H. Wendl. occurs on most of the islands from Anegada (east of the Virgin Islands) to the islands off the coast of British Honduras, and Florida, but not in Jamaica.
