Myrialepis paradoxa
Myrialepis is a monotypic genus of flowering plant in the palm family native to Southeast Asia, where the only species Myrialepis paradoxa is colloquially called rotan kertong, or simply rattan. The genus name is a combination of the Greek words meaning "innumerable" and "scale", a description of the fruit, and the epithet is Latin for "paradox".
