Retispatha
''Retispatha'' is a rare, monotypic genus of flowering plant in the palm family endemic to Borneo, where the sole species, ''Retispatha dumetosa'', is known as wi tebu bruang (dialectial: wi tebi bagadap) or "the bear's sugar cane". The name combines Latin and Greek words meaning "network" and "spathe", and the species epithet means "bushy".〔Riffle, Robert L. and Craft, Paul (2003) ''An Encyclopedia of Cultivated Palms''. Portland: Timber Press. ISBN 0-88192-558-6 / ISBN 978-0-88192-558-6〕 While classified with other rattans, they retain only superficial climbing organs; they sprawl and lean but are not true climbers.
==Taxonomy==
Despite bearing strong resemblance to members of the Plectocomiinae, in preparing illustrations for the palm survey ''Genera Palmarum'', Marion Sheehan discovered a single sterile, staminate flower among the pistillate members. The absence of such a flower previously obscured its relationship with the Calaminae, which it also closely resembles. This find, despite its rarity, seems to confirm its placement in the Calaminae subtribe.〔Uhl, Natalie W. and Dransfield, John (1987) ''Genera Palmarum - A classification of palms based on the work of Harold E. Moore''. Lawrence, Kansas: Allen Press. ISBN 0-935868-30-5 / ISBN 978-0-935868-30-2〕
