Pseudophoenix lediniana is a palm species endemic to the Tiburon Peninsula in southwestern Haiti.[2][3] It is a medium-sized tree, 10–20 metres tall, with pinnately compound leaves and solitary stems slightly swollen at the base.[2]
Pseudophoenix lediniana is rare in the wild.[2] The species was described and named by Robert William Read. This palm is named after Dr. R. Bruce Ledin, one of the founders of The Palm Society in Florida.[4]
