Podococcus barteri
Small, solitary or clustered palm; stem erect, to 2 (-3) m tall; leaves undivided when juvenile becoming pinnate when adult; leaflets to 7 on each side of rachis, rhomboid, subopposite, with praemorse margins; fruits narrowly ellipsoid or with narrowly ellipsoid lobes, 3 cm long and 0,6 cm in diameter, bright orange when ripe.
Podococcus barteri is distributed from the Niger Delta almost to the Congo River, excluding the region between the Cross and the Sanaga rivers in Cameroon. The species has been also reported on the island of Bioko (Fernando Pó) in Equatorial Guinea (Aedo et al., 1999), but no specimens have been apparently found in order to confirm its presence there.
This species grows in lowland evergreen forest on terra firma including low hills but also on relatively dry patches in swamp forest and on river banks; it grows from 0 to 700 m.
