Coccothrinax is a genus of fan palms found throughout the Caribbean and in adjacent parts of southern Florida and Mexico. This list of Coccothrinax species includes accepted names according to the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families.[1] Most species are small to medium-sized, with maximum heights between 5 and 15 metres (17 and 49ft). Fifty-four or 55 species are recognised; only one them C. readii, is absent from the insular Caribbean.[2] Two species, C. argentata and C. barbadensis, are widespread, while most of the others are restricted to Cuba and Hispaniola.
Andrew Henderson, Gloria Galeano and Rodrigo Bernal only recognised 14 species of Coccothrinax in their Field Guide to the Palms of the Americas[3] while Brett Jestrow and colleagues recognised 54.[2] The World Checklist of Selected Plant Families recognises 55 species.[1]
