Eleiodoxa is a monotypic genus of flowering plant in the palm family found in Southeast Asia.

[3] While remaining underground, the trunks of these palms are clustering and form dense thickets.

A mature leaf reaches 3.5 m in length on 3 m petioles which are armed with whorls of 5 – 7 cm long spines.

The inflorescence emerges at ground level, bearing either male or female flowers, in the latter forming scaly, red fruit with one or occasionally two seeds.

When this palm is cultivated it demands generous water, and rich, acidic soil and shade or filtered light.
