Abstract A recent review on cold hardiness provided estimates
from various sources for some southernmost limits of palm species which
are erroneous or outdated. Here I provide corrected estimates for the
southernmost limits of Livistona, Rhopalostylis, and Jubaea
in Australia, New Zealand, and South America, respectively.
Keywords Australia; Chile; Jubaea; latitude; Livistona;
