- ... that in 1725 Hans Sloane described Bactris jamaicana (which he called Prickly-Pole) as the Jamaican tree species that was "the most fit to make Rods and Scowrers for Guns"? Source: "They are the most fit to made Rods and Scrowrers for Guns of any Tree on this Island" (A Voyage to the Islands Madera, Barbados, Nieves, S. Christophers and Jamaica, p. 121)
- ALT1:... that the Jamaican endemic palm Bactris jamaicana is most closely related to a palms species endemic to Cuba and Hispaniola? Source: "Three species of Bactris are recognized in the Greater Antilles: B. cubensis (from Cuba), B. plumeriana (from Hispaniola), and B. jamaicana (from Jamaica). A cladistic analysis of the non-ocreate clade-i.e., Bactris cubensis, B. plumeriana, B. jamaicana, B. macana, and B. gasipaes-confirmed that the Greater Antillean species of Bactris form a monophyletic group, i.e., the Antillean clade."
