Description
Sabal etonia is a fan palm with a solitary stem that is usually subterranean, but is sometimes above ground and up to 2 m (6.6 ft) tall. Plants usually have four to seven costapalmate leaves, each with 25–50 leaflets. The inflorescences, which are branched with a bushy appearance, are shorter than the leaves and bear brownish-black fruit. The fruit are 0.9–1.5 cm (0.4–0.6 in) and 0.8–1.3 cm (0.3–0.5 in) in diameter.[5][4]
Taxonomy
Sabal is placed in the subfamily Coryphoideae and the tribe Sabaleae.[6]
The species was first described by American botanist Walter Tennyson Swingle in 1896, based on collections made near Eustis, Florida, in 1894.[7]
