Cyphosperma trichospadix (trichospadix being derived from the Greek words for "hair" and "spadix," an allusion to the hirsute spathe of the inflorescence) is a species of evergreen flowering plant in the family Arecaceae. It is endemic to Fiji, currently threatened by habitat loss, and thus extremely rare in cultivation.
