Archontophoenicinae
Archontophoenicinae is a botanical subtribe consisting of four genera of palms, namely ''Archontophoenix'' from Queensland and New South Wales and '' Actinokentia'', '' Chambeyronia'' and ''Kentiopsis'' from New Caledonia. Phylogenetic relationships between the four genera are unresolved.Domenech, B., C. B. Asmussen-Lange, W. J. Baker, E. Alapetite, J. C. Pintaud, and S. Nadot.

Description The palms in this subtribe are medium-sized palms, with well-developed, distinct crownshafts and strictly pinnate leaves with generally short and massive petioles. The inflorescences are branched to two or three orders, with the prophyll and penduncular bracts similar.

Actinorhytis
''Actinorhytis'' is a monotypic genus of flowering plant in the palm family found in Oceania and southeast Asia. The lone species, ''Actinorhytis calapparia'' (commonly known as calappa palm) is a rain forest inhabitant and has very large fruit.Uhl, Natalie W. and Dransfield, John (1987) ''Genera Palmarum - A classification of palms based on the work of Harold E. Moore''. Lawrence, Kansas: Allen Press. / The genus name is from two Greek words meaning 'ray' and 'fold' which describe the endosperm of the seed. Description The species is solitary trunked, reaching in height, and is relatively slender, usually no wider than . At the base, the white to tan trunks are anchored by a large, conical mass of aerial roots and are topped by a distinct crownshaft, slightly bulging at the base. The leaf crown is sparse but spherical, each arching leaf is around long with pinnately arranged leaflets which are dark green in colour. The leaflets are closely and regularly arranged along the ...

Hedyscepe
''Hedyscepe canterburyana'', the big mountain palm or umbrella palm, is the sole species in the genus ''Hedyscepe'' of the family Arecaceae. It is endemic to Lord Howe Island, Australia and is threatened by habitat loss. It is a solitary palm with a distinct crownshaft, and bears unisexual flowers of both sexes. With the ''Rhopalostylis'' palms of Norfolk Island and New Zealand it forms the botanic subtribe Rhopalostylidinae. If differs from ''Rhopalostylis'' in minor floral details including having more than six stamens, and in being protandrous rather than protogynous. The two genera were formerly included in Archontophoenicinae until a recent revision (Dransfield, Uhl et al., 2005). In some (but not all) molecular phylogenetic analyses, ''Hedyscepe'' was found to be nested in the New Caledonia endemic ''Basselinia''. Description ''Hedyscepe canterburyana'' is a slow-growing palm up to tall which grows on mountain forests, cliffs, and exposed ridges overlooking the sea, at abou ...

Rhopalostylidinae
Rhopalostylidinae is a botanical subtribe consisting of two genera of palms from Australia and New Zealand, ''Hedyscepe'' and ''Rhopalostylis''. These two genera were formerly included in Archontophoenicinae, to which they are morphologically similar (Dowe 2010:233), until a recent revision (Dransfield, Uhl et al., 2005). Description The palms in this subtribe are medium-sized palms, with well-developed, distinct crownshafts and strictly pinnate Pinnation (also called pennation) is the arrangement of feather-like or multi-divided features arising from both sides of a common axis. Pinnation occurs in biological morphology, in crystals, such as some forms of ice or metal crystals, and in ... leaves with generally short and massive petioles. The inflorescences are branched to two or three orders, with the prophyll and penduncular bracts similar (Uhl and Dransfield 1987:367).

Archontophoenix Cunninghamiana
''Archontophoenix cunninghamiana'' (Bangalow palm, king palm, Illawara palm, ''piccabben'', ''piccabeen'') is an Australian palm. It can grow over 20 m tall. Its flower colour is violet and the red fruits are attractive to birds. It flowers in midsummer and has evergreen foliage. The piccabeen palm grows in the wet subtropics on the sides of Mt Warning Volcano in northern NSW and over the border in Queensland's Lamington National Park, for example. It seeks a stable water supply so ravines and grottos are well populated. Its fronds do not create a nesting environment for insects or macrofauna like rodents, so are a tolerable tree for urban environments. They arrived in Australia from the landbridge created 45,000 years ago due to the receding ocean levels during the last glacial period, but the probable 'native' environment in prehistory was Indonesia. It has become a noxious weed in many areas where it has been used as an ornamental plant. In southern Brazil, it has become a ...

Kermadec Islands
The Kermadec Islands ( mi, Rangitāhua) are a subtropical island arc in the South Pacific Ocean northeast of New Zealand's North Island, and a similar distance southwest of Tonga. The islands are part of New Zealand. They are in total area and uninhabited, except for the permanently manned Raoul Island Station, the northernmost outpost of New Zealand. The islands are listed with the New Zealand outlying islands. The islands are an immediate part of New Zealand, but not part of any region or district, but instead an ''Area Outside Territorial Authority''. Toponymy The islands were named after the Breton captain Jean-Michel Huon de Kermadec, who visited the islands as part of the d'Entrecasteaux expedition in the 1790s. The topographic particle "Kermadec" is of Breton origin and is a lieu-dit in Pencran in Finistère where '' ker'' means village, residence and madec a proper name derived from '' mad'' (which means 'good') with the suffix '' -ec'', used to form adjectives in ...
