Geonoma cuneata subsp. procumbens (Wendland ex Spruce) Henderson , comb. & stat. nov. Basionym: Geonoma procumbens Wendland ex Spruce (1871: 105) . Geonoma cuneata var. procumbens (Wendland ex Spruce) Skov ex Govaerts & Dransfield (2005: 114) . Type: COSTA RICA . Heredia : Sarapiquí, 1857, H. Wendland s.n. ( holotype K!). Leaves pinnate; petioles drying green or yellowish; veins not raised or slightly raised and triangular in crosssection adaxially; rachis 71.3(42.0–108.0) cm long; pinnae 12(1–28) per side of rachis. Inflorescences staminate flowers deciduous after anthesis; non-fertilized pistillate flowers deciduous after anthesis. Distribution and habitat:— From 7°24’– 11°43’N and 77°40’– 85°20’W in Nicaragua , Costa Rica , and Panama at 221(50–700) m elevation in lowland rainforest ( Fig. 15 ). There are two separate populations, in Nicaragua and Costa Rica , and eastern Panama . These do not differ from each other except for two variables (apical pinna width, rachilla width–both wider in the Panama population)( t -test, P <0.05). Two specimens ( Herrera 752, 973 ) from the same locality in eastern Panama , and from the same locality as other specimens of subsp. procumbens , differ in their undivided leaves.
