Great link Erik, Thanks. If I understand the article correctly Cocos odorata is now correctly Butia odorata. In addition Butia capitata replaced Cocos capitata as the accepted name. These are confirmed by the Catalog of Life which references the Kew World Checklist of Selected Plant Families.

I just created an entry for B. odorata. Pindo Palm (Butia odorata)
