The Coryphoideae is one of five subfamilies in the palm family, Arecaceae.[2][3][4] It contains all of the genera with palmate leaves, excepting Mauritia, Mauritiella and Lepidocaryum, all of subfamily Calamoideae, tribe Lepidocaryeae, subtribe Mauritiinae.[5][4][3] However, all Coryphoid palm leaves have induplicate (V-shaped) leaf folds (excepting Guihaia), while Calamoid palms have reduplicate (inverted V-shaped) leaf folds.[4] Pinnate leaves do occur in Coryphoideae, in Phoenix, Arenga, Wallichia and bipinnate in Caryota.
Classification

Subfamily Coryphoideae is divided into 8 tribes:[3]

Sabaleae
Sabal
Cryosophileae
Schippia
Trithrinax
Zombia
Coccothrinax
Hemithrinax
Thrinax
Chelyocarpus
Cryosophila
Itaya
Sabinaria
Phoeniceae
Phoenix
Trachycarpeae
Chamaerops
Guihaia
Trachycarpus
Rhapidophyllum
Maxburretia
Rhapis
Livistona
Licuala
Lanonia
Johannesteijsmannia
Pholidocarpus
Saribus
Acoelorrhaphe
Serenoa
Brahea
Colpothrinax
Copernicia
Pritchardia
Washingtonia
Chuniophoeniceae
Chuniophoenix
Kerriodoxa
Nannorrhops
Tahina
Caryoteae
Caryota
Arenga
Wallichia
Corypheae
Corypha
Borasseae
Bismarckia
Satranala
Hyphaene
Medemia
Latania
Lodoicea
Borassodendron
Borassus

The genus Sabinaria was discovered and described after the classification used here[3][4] was published, but its morphology clearly places it in tribe Cryosophileae.[6] The genus Saribus was split from Livistona,[7] while Lanonia was split from Licuala,[8] also after publication. Tribe Trachycarpeae was initially described as tribe 'Livistoneae',[3] but the name Trachycarpeae has priority.[4] Also Uhlia is an extinct genus described from permineralized remains recovered from the Ypresian Princeton Chert in British Columbia, Canada.[9]
