A smallish, clustering palm with slender stems to 4 m (13 ft.) tall, each holding a small crown of flat, pinnate or rarely simple and entire leaves. The flower stalks stand erect among the leaves. It is found from the eastern Andes in central Peru north to the Cordillera de la Costa in Venezuela, where it grows in montane rainforests between 1000 and 2000 m (3300 and 6600 ft.). Although it would make a lovely ornamental for humid warm temperate and tropical areas, it has hardly been introduced into cultivation.
