Plectocomiopsis songthanhensis is known only from central Vietnam in Quang Nam and Thua Thien–Hue Provinces. In Vietnam, P. geminiflora is known only from southern part of the country, in Dong Nai and Lam Dong Provinces, although it is widely distributed elsewhere (Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, Borneo, Peninsular Malaysia, and Sumatra). Three specimens of Plectocomiopsis at K (Khamphone 393, 409, Sounthone 22) from Laos occur relatively near to the population of P. songthanhensis. Although all three specimens are sterile, they share bristly pinnae, tattering ocreas, and spiny petioles, and are identified as P. geminiflora (Evans et al. 2002).</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/387AC21DFFB01874FF13F96142E2C46C	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

These two character states are not found in Calamus, but are common in Daemonorops, and therefore we transfer both these species to Daemonorops.

Dung 2004 (holotype: FIPI!, isotype: NY!).</p> <p>Stems clustered, climbing, to 10 m long, 1.8 cm diam. with sheaths. Leaf sheaths closed, green with brown tomentum, densely covered with yellowish spines to 1.5 cm long, those at the sheath apices longer, to 4 cm long, forming rows on either side of sheath apices and petiole bases; ocreas scarcely developed; knees absent; flagella present, to 60 cm long; petioles to 30 cm long, spiny laterally and abaxially as the sheaths; rachis to 42 cm long, with scattered, solitary, recurved spines abaxially; cirri absent; pinnae 8–9 per side of rachis, 29–35 cm long, 2–3 cm wide at the middle, linear–lanceolate, arranged in two distant groups of 5 pinnae distally and 3–4 proximally, scarcely bristly along the margins, the apical pair of pinnae joined distally for one third to one half their length. Staminate inflorescences to 0.7 m long, arching, flagellate, branched to 2 orders, with 4 partial inflorescences; prophylls not seen; partial inflorescence bracts tubular, briefly splitting at the apices, without spines; rachillae 5–6 per partial inflorescence, 2–5 cm long; staminate flowers not seen; pistillate inflorescences not seen; fruits not seen.</p> <p>Distribution and habitat: —Endemic to southern Vietnam in Khanh Hoa Province in primary, evergreen forest at 300–400 m elevation.</p> <p>Local names and uses: — may cam. The stems are used in basketry.</p> <p>Discussion: — Calamus seriatus (named for its rows of spines at sheath apices) appears most similar to that group of species having the leaf sheath spines conspicuously longer at the sheath apices (C. flagellum Griffith ex Martius (1853: 333), C. guruba Buchanan-Hamilton in Martius (1838: 211), C. rhabdocladus Burret (1930: 884) and C. rudentum Loureiro (1790: 209)). It differs from all these in its 8–9 pinnae per side of the rachis arranged in two distant groups with the apical pair joined at their bases, versus 27–65 pinnae per side of the rachis arranged regularly or sometimes irregularly with the apical pair not joined at their bases.</p> </div>	http://treatment.plazi.org/id/387AC21DFFB61870FF16FD104353C1A1	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
