Daemonorops

Calamus draco, syn. Daemonorops draco

Daemonorops was a genus of rattan palms in the family Arecaceae.[1] Its species are now included within the genus Calamus.[2] Species now placed in Daemonorops are dioecious, with male and female flowers on separate individuals.[3] They are found primarily in the tropics and subtropics of southeastern Asia with a few species extending into southern China and the Himalayas.[4][5]

Polysaccharides found in some former Daemonorops species are known for their medicinal anticoagulant properties.[6] The resin of Daemonorops draco is known to contain a bitter-masking compound.[7]
