The climate of the area is described as semi-desert with 9 or 10 dry months.[1] Like other members of the genus, C. torrida is a fan palm. Trees are single-stemmed, between 2 and 8 m tall with stems 2.5 to 3.9 (occasionally up to 4.5) cm in diameter. The fruit is creamy white, 4.8–6.3 mm in diameter.[1] The species was first described in 2006 from material collected in 2003.[1] It is related to C. pauciramosa, and is characterized by the following features: narrow semiorbicular flat leaves that are covered on the adaxial surface by white wax; a small irregular palman; long and erect inflorescences; and small, white, smooth fruits. C. torrida and C. montana are the only described species with white fruits in the genus Coccothrinax.[1] Since it is known from a single population of about 5000 individuals, the species is considered Vulnerable.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite journal | last = Morici | first = Carlo | authorlink = |author2=Raúl Verdecia Pérez | year = 2006 | title = Coccothrinax torrida (Arecaceae), a new species from southeastern Cuba | journal = Brittonia | volume = 58 | issue = 2 | pages = 189–193 | doi = 10.1663/0007-196X(2006)58[189:CTAANS]2.0.CO;2| id = | url = http://www.bioone.org/perlserv/?request=get-abstract&doi=10.1663%2F0007-196X%282006%2958%5B189%3ACTAANS%5D2.0.CO%3B2 | language = | format = | accessdate = 2007-01-13 }} External links
