Palmeria racemosa is a species of flowering plant in the family Monimiaceae and is endemic to eastern Australia.
The fruit is green, splitting to form a pinkish receptacle with 3 to 7 black or red drupes.
[2] Palmeria racemosa is similar to Palmeria scandens, but has star-shaped hairs 0.3–1.1 mm (0.012–0.043 in) in diameter on the midrib, sometimes also on lateral veins – P. scandens has both simple and star-shaped hairs on the lower leaf surface.
[3] This species was first formally described in 1855 by Edmond Tulasne who gave it the name Hedycarya racemosa in Annales des Sciences Naturelles.
[4][5] In 1868, Alphonse Pyramus de Candolle transferred the species to Palmeria as P. racemosa in Prodromus Systematis Naturalis Regni Vegetabilis.
