Summary

Astrocaryum vulgare is a very spiny palm native to the Guianas and the Amazon. It is a species which has greatly benefited from deforestation, as it cannot grow in undisturbed rainforest. It is common in the Pará state of Brazil, to the east of the Amazon. This plant has edible fruit. Astrocaryum vulgare was first described in the book Flora Brasiliensis by Carl Friedrich Philipp von Martius....read more on Wikipedia.
