Aiphanes aculeata : ウィキペディア英語版 | Aiphanes horrida
''Aiphanes horrida'' is a palm native to northern South America and Trinidad and Tobago. ''Aiphanes horrida'' is a solitary, spiny tree. In the wild it grows 3–10 metres tall (9–30 feet) tall with a stem diameter of 6–10 centimetres (2–4 inches); cultivated trees may be as much as 15 m (49') tall with a 15 cm (6") diameter.〔 The epicarp and mesocarp of the fruit are rich in carotene and are eaten in Colombia, while the seeds are used to make candles.〔 In parts of the Colombian Llanos endocarps are used to play games.〔 The range of the species is found in dry forests between sea level and 1700 m (5600') above sea level in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Peru, Trinidad and Tobago and Venezuela, but is not native to Ecuador.〔 The species is cultivated as an ornamental throughout the tropics.〔 Many authors, including Henderson ''et al.'' (1995)〔 and Borchenius and Bernal (1996)〔 use ''A. aculeata'' rather than ''A. horrida'', giving Jacquin's description of ''Caryota horrida'' a publication date of 1809, three years after Willdenow's 1806 description. On the other hand, Govaerts ''et al.'' (2006) gives Jacquin's work a publication date of 1801, giving ''A. horrida'' priority over ''A. aculeata''. ==Common names== ''Aiphanes horrida'' is commonly known by a variety of names including ''Cocos rura'', ''Mararay'', ''Corozo'', ''Macagüita'', ''Marará'', ''Macahuite'', ''Corozo del Orinoco'', ''Corozo anchame'', ''Mararava'', ''Cubarro'', ''Chonta'', ''Chascaraza'', ''Charascal'', ''Corozo chiquito'', ''Corozo colorado'', ''Pujamo'', ''Gualte'', ''Chonta ruro'', ''Pupunha xicaxica'', Coyure palm, Ruffle palm, Aculeata palm and Spine palm.
