'''''Trachycarpus martianus''''' (also known as '''Martius' fan palm''') is a species in the genus ''[[Trachycarpus]]'' from two distinct populations, one at 5,000 feet (1,500 m) in the [[Khasia Hills]], [[Meghalaya Province]], in northeast [[India]], the other at 8,000 feet (2,400 m) in central northern [[Nepal]]. There may be well be other populations. The main identifying characteristics are the regular leaf splits (to about half way), the coffee bean shaped seeds (similar looking to ''[[Trachycarpus latisectus]]'') and the bare, as opposed to fibrous trunk. The new leaf spear and edges of the petioles are covered with a white tomentum.<ref>Martin Gibbons. ''A pocket guide to Palms''.</ref>
