Iguanura is a monoecious genus of flowering plant in the palm family from Southeast Asia, commonly called pinang.
Closely related to the Heterospathe palms, they are noted for producing a wide variety of fruit forms.
[2] This taxon is composed of very small, undergrowth palms which may be solitary or clustering, rarely exceeding 4 m in height.
The leaves may be regularly or irregularly pinnate, with or without a notched apice, entire or segmented, all with toothed margins.
[3] Colored green, white, brown, pink or red, the fruit carries one seed which usually takes the shape of the endocarp.
