Calamus rhomboideus (PROSEA)

Plant Resources of South-East Asia Introduction

List of species

Calamus rhomboideus Bl.

Family: Palmae

Sumatra and Java.

Apparently similar to C. blumei Becc., possibly for making baskets and mats.

Most of the characters of C. rhomboideus are similar to those of C. blumei ; however, as it is not adequately represented in herbaria, it is difficult to draw any conclusions about its distinctness.
