Coccothrinax munizii is a species of palm tree that is endemic to eastern Cuba.[1] Like other members of the genus Coccothrinax, C. munizii is a fan palm. It grows on rocky hills or in dry scrub forest on limestone.[2]

Henderson and colleagues (1995) considered C. munizii to be a synonym of Coccothrinax ekmanii.[2]
