New Caledonia Palm Species List?

[Jim in Los Altos]

Now that several New Caledonia species of palms are doing super in the garden here, does anyone have a comprehensive list of the forty or so species endemic to that area of the world. I haven’t found anything like that while searching the web. I’d like to try additional New Caledonia palms. I just don’t know them all.

Thanks. I know of this fine book but I was hoping for something more up to date. The book was published in 1998 and I believe there have been a number of name changes since.

Jim, Jeff Marcus told me recently that the majority opinion on at least a few of these more recent name-changes may be shifting back to using older names (e.g., resurrecting Veillonia alba in rejection of the 2008 sinking of that species into Cyphophoenix). Bill Baker and Jean-Christophe Pintaud had done the major 2008 revision and you can download that full paper as published in the Kew Bulletin here. So perhaps not such a detriment to use Don Hodel's slightly older book after all, if you're willing to do a little back-and-forth between publications to see where current opinion is leaning...and as an additional cross-reference you can find a list of the somewhat altered genus/species names opined by the authors of the newest (2024) phylogenetic analysis in this very recent study.
