===Description:===
''Syagrus santosii'' is related to ''[[Syagrus schizophylla]]'', from which it differs by having larger fruit (2.9 to 4.6 x 2.6 to 3.8 cm), with epicarp and mesocarp usually split at the apex when ripe, bigger endocarp (2.7 to 4.2 x 2.4 to 3 cm) with homogeneous endosperm, patent leaves with greater amount of pinnae on each side of the leaf, larger pistillate flowers.

===Culture:===
Flowering and fruiting during the year, but mostly in April to May and September to October. Seeds germinate easily in moist sphagnum bags. Requires the same growing conditions of ''S. schizophylla'';.
