Daemonorops (probably means God-like, of divine appearance). Palmaceae, tribe Lepidocdrpeae. Slender pinnate palms grown for their graceful foliage, but little known in Amer. outside of botanic gardens. Differs from Calamus (with which it is by some united) only in having the outer sheaths or spathes boat-shaped, deciduous, at first inclosing the inner sheaths; its more longly stalked fls. also separate it from Calamus.— About 85 species, all Trop. Asiatic. Only a very few are in cult. Treatment and general cultural conditions of Calamus. D. Draco produces some of the "dragon's blood" of commerce. D. plumosus, Hort. Graceful plume-like Lvs., with pinnae 4 ft. or leas long; petioles with rigid black spines with white bases. India. F. 1871, p. 39.—Not in cult, in N. Amer. Jared G. Smith.N. Taylor. CH
