Livistona is closely related to the genus Saribus, and for the past century and half Saribus was included in Livistona. Recent studies, however, have advocated separating the two groups.[2][3] The generic epithet Saribus comes from a local name in one of the Maluku languages, sariboe, as recorded by the Dutch.[4]
Anáhaw (Saribus rotundifolius) is the unofficial national leaf of the Philippines.[5]
