Corypha
''Corypha'' (gebang palm, buri palm or talipot palm) is a genus of palms (family Arecaceae), native to India, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, New Guinea and northeastern Australia (Cape York Peninsula, Queensland). They are fan palms (subfamily Coryphoideae), and the leaves have a long petiole terminating in a rounded fan of numerous leaflets. All are large palms with leaves ranging from 2–5 metres in length. They reach heights of 20–40 m and with a trunk diameter of up to 1-2.5 m. All the species are monocarpic and die after flowering. The genus is relatively slow growing and can take many years to form a trunk. Species include: Gallery File:Buntaljfa.JPG, A traditional Filipino buntal hat made from buri palm fiber Uses In the Philippines, buri trees, like the sago palm, are used as sources of starch made into starch balls called landang. These are traditionally cooked into various desserts and dishes, most notably the binignit. The leaves are often used for ...

List Of Arecaceae Genera
This is a list of all the genus, genera in the botanical family Arecaceae, the palm family, based on Baker & Dransfield (2016), which is a revised listing of genera given in the 2008 edition of ''Genera Palmarum''. Taxonomy This is a list of all the genus, genera in the botanical family Arecaceae, the palm family, arranged by tribe (biology), tribes and subtribes within the family. ''Genera Palmarum'' (2008) lists 183 genera. ''Lanonia'', ''Saribus'', and the monotypic genera ''Jailoloa'', ''Wallaceodoxa'', ''Manjekia'', and ''Sabinaria'', which were described after 2008, have also been included below. ''Ceratolobus'', ''Daemonorops'', ''Pogonotium'', ''Wallichia'', ''Lytocaryum'', and the monotypic genera ''Retispatha'', ''Pritchardiopsis'', and ''Solfia'' have since been removed from ''Genera Palmarum'' (2008) as obsolete genera.

Corypha Taliera
''Corypha taliera'' is a species of palm, originally native to Myanmar (Burma) and the Bengal region of India and Bangladesh. It was first discovered by Scottish botanist William Roxburgh. It has been listed extinct in the wild in the IUCN Red list. The species is locally known as Tali Palm or Talipalm. Taxonomy A solitary, massive, moderately slow growing, monoecious palm with a hapaxanthic or monocarpic mode of growth where the plant dies after setting seed. It has a rough, grey-brown trunk, tall, in diameter with no obvious leaf scars, and massive partially segmented, palmate (fan) leaves, long, wide, dark green above and beneath, on the end of 3 metre (9 feet) long petiole, armed with black teeth. These are one of the largest palmate leaves of any plant. The leaves are circular costapalmate and carried on long stout petioles armed with black teeth. These, together with C. umbraculifera's hold the record of the largest palmate leaves of any plant. The main identificati ...

Landang
Landang, comes from Buli or Buri Tree (''Corypha''), a type of palm found in the Philippines and other tropical countries. This tree only flowers once in its life and then dies. At first glance, landang looks like shrunken, flattened sago. It is traditionally used in making binignit in the Visayan region of the Philippines. Preparation The process is very similar in making sago. First, the buli palm is felled. The hard core can be reached by breaking the trunk open. The hard core is chopped into fragments that should be dried perfectly and hand crushed into powder form thereby turning it into flour. This process requires several rounds of pounding. This is then mixed with water to form the product. It can be stored for weeks or a few months. Uses Landang is essential in making the traditional Visayan binignit or vegetable stew usually eaten during the Lenten season in the Philippines when almost everyone is fasting.

Arecaceae
The Arecaceae is a family of perennial flowering plants in the monocot order Arecales. Their growth form can be climbers, shrubs, tree-like and stemless plants, all commonly known as palms. Those having a tree-like form are called palm trees. Currently, 181 genera with around 2,600 species are known, most of which are restricted to tropical and subtropical climates. Most palms are distinguished by their large, compound, evergreen leaves, known as fronds, arranged at the top of an unbranched stem. However, palms exhibit an enormous diversity in physical characteristics and inhabit nearly every type of habitat within their range, from rainforests to deserts. Palms are among the best known and most extensively cultivated plant families. They have been important to humans throughout much of history. Many common products and foods are derived from palms. In contemporary times, palms are also widely used in landscaping. In many historical cultures, because of their importance as ...

Coryphoideae
The Coryphoideae is one of five subfamilies in the palm family, Arecaceae. It contains all of the genera with palmate leaves, excepting ''Mauritia'', ''Mauritiella'' and ''Lepidocaryum,'' all of subfamily Calamoideae, tribe Lepidocaryeae, subtribe Mauritiinae. However, all Coryphoid palm leaves have induplicate (V-shaped) leaf folds (excepting ''Guihaia''), while Calamoid palms have reduplicate (inverted V-shaped) leaf folds. Pinnate leaves do occur in Coryphoideae, in ''Phoenix'', '' Arenga'', ''Wallichia'' and bipinnate in ''Caryota''. Classification Subfamily Coryphoideae is divided into 8 tribes: * Sabaleae ** ''Sabal'' * Cryosophileae ** ''Schippia'' ** '' Trithrinax'' ** ''Zombia'' ** ''Coccothrinax'' ** ''Hemithrinax'' ** ''Thrinax'' ** ''Chelyocarpus'' ** ''Cryosophila'' ** ''Itaya'' ** ''Sabinaria'' * Phoeniceae ** ''Phoenix'' * Trachycarpeae ** ''Chamaerops'' ** ''Guihaia'' ** ''Trachycarpus'' ** ''Rhapidophyllum'' ** ''Maxburretia'' ** ''Rhapis'' ** ''Livistona'' ...
