Abstract

ROIG, Fidel A.; MARTINEZ CARRETERO, Eduardo  and  MARTIN OSORIO, Victoria E.. Phoenix sylvestris (L.) Roxburg (Arecaceae) in Argentina. Multequina [online]. 2006, vol.15, n.1, pp.49-54. ISSN 1852-7329.

Phoenix sylvestris (L.) Roxburg, cultivated as ornamental and naturalized in anthropic environments of Mendoza, San Juan, and other provinces of Argentina, is presented herein. We think that this species was introduced nearly 100 years ago, and is cited for the first time for Argentina. Ph. sylvestris hybridizes with Ph. canariensis, cultivated too, which on many occasions makes its determination difficult.

Keywords : Palm; Introduced; Irbid; Adventitious roots.
