The Coryphoideae is one of five subfamilies in the palm family, Arecaceae.[2][3][4] It contains all of the genera with palmate leaves, excepting Mauritia, Mauritiella and Lepidocaryum, all of subfamily Calamoideae, tribe Lepidocaryeae, subtribe Mauritiinae.[5][4][3] However, all Coryphoid palm leaves have induplicate (V-shaped) leaf folds (excepting Guihaia), while Calamoid palms have reduplicate (inverted V-shaped) leaf folds.[4] Pinnate leaves do occur in Coryphoideae, in Phoenix, Arenga, Wallichia and bipinnate in Caryota.

## Classification[edit]

Subfamily Coryphoideae is divided into 8 tribes:[3]

* Sabaleae
* Sabal
* Cryosophileae
* Schippia
* Trithrinax
* Zombia
* Coccothrinax
* Hemithrinax
* Thrinax
* Chelyocarpus
* Cryosophila
* Itaya
* Sabinaria
* Phoeniceae
* Phoenix
* Trachycarpeae
* Chamaerops
* Guihaia
* Trachycarpus
* Rhapidophyllum
* Maxburretia
* Rhapis
* Livistona
* Licuala
* Lanonia
* Johannesteijsmannia
* Pholidocarpus
* Saribus
* Acoelorrhaphe
* Serenoa
* Brahea
* Colpothrinax
* Copernicia
* Pritchardia
* Washingtonia
* Chuniophoeniceae
* Chuniophoenix
* Kerriodoxa
* Nannorrhops
* Tahina
* Caryoteae
* Caryota
* Arenga
* Wallichia
* Corypheae
* Corypha
* Borasseae
* Bismarckia
* Satranala
* Hyphaene
* Medemia
* Latania
* Lodoicea
* Borassodendron
* Borassus

The genus Sabinaria was discovered and described after the classification used here[3][4] was published, but its morphology clearly places it in tribe Cryosophileae.[6] The genus Saribus was split from Livistona,[7] while Lanonia was split from Licuala,[8] also after publication. Tribe Trachycarpeae was initially described as tribe 'Livistoneae',[3] but the name Trachycarpeae has priority.[4] Also Uhlia is an extinct genus described from permineralized remains recovered from the Ypresian Princeton Chert in British Columbia, Canada.[9]
