Metroxylon (heart wood, in allusion to the large pith). Palmaceae. Sago Palm. A half-dozen or more species of erect monocarpic (fruiting but once) palms of the Malayan Archipelago, New Guinea and Fiji, mostly or often unarmed, ringed below, with pinnatisect lvs., allied to Raphia. Lvs. terminal, suberect, equally pinnatisect, the segms. opposite and linear-lanceolate- acuminate: spadix large, loosely paniculate: fls. polygamous-monoecious or perfect; corolla 3-parted, the lobes oblong; stamens 6, the filaments connate at base; ovary imperfectly 3-celled, the ovules 3: fr. subglobose or ellipsoid, 1-celled and 1-seeded.—The species and synonymy are confused. None, apparently, is in cult. within our territory. The sago of commerce is derived from the trunks of M. laeve and M. Rumphii. The trunks are cut into lengths, split, and the starch washed out and subsequently heated. These grow in the Malay Isls.<br />
