__TOC__

===Distribution & Habitat:===
These palms are only found a small area at around 650m altitude on Reunion Island,
on the outskirts of the town of Tampon (not far from <i>Hyophorbe indica</i>).
It has only been found on land owned by a Mr Roussel, hence the name.

===Description:===
A tall, solitary, palm to between 15 and 20 metres (50 - 65 feet) tall.
It has pinnate leaves to about 3 metres (9 feet) long, with the rhachis
covered in strong black spines, to 2-3 cm, (1 inch) long, and a conspicuious crownshaft.
The stem base splays out like an elephant"s foot, more obvious on the older plants.
It basically resembles A rubra except for some subtle differences, such as seed size, leaf style etc, and of course altitude. A rubra is typically lowland, A roussellii is transitional lowland/highland, A crinita is highland to 2000m altitude and is white in the crown not red or brown.

===Cultivation:===
Likes a sunny, moist, but well drained position in the tropics/sub tropics.
Seed needs to be very fresh to germinate, and the plants are very slow growing.
