Abstract
Chrysalidocarpus is the second-largest genus in Arecaceae subtribe Dypsidinae, comprising 60 species distributed across Madagascar, the Comoro Archipelago, and Pemba Island. Since 2022, five new species have been described from cultivation and here we describe and illustrate two more new species, C. comptus and C. marcusorum, based on specimens cultivated in Hawai’i.
