Allgemeine Informationen:
A new species described in 2008 from central Vietnam. Pinanga humilis differs from all previously described species of Pinanga from Vietnam by its leaf sheaths which do not form a distinct crownshaft and inflorescences which are not infrafoliar. In this it is similar to P. cattienensis, differing in its distichously (versus spirally) arranged triads; 38–39 cm long (versus 90–95 cm long) rachis; and 5–7 (versus 9–13) pinnae per side of the rachis.
