Balaka streptostachys

Balaka streptostachys is a critically endangered species of flowering plant in the family Arecaceae. It is found only in Fiji. It grows to a height of 4 to 7 m and 10 cm in diameter. It is distinct from the other Balaka species because of the twists in its rachilla.

The only known population of this palm is in a stand of approximately 50 trees, on the northern foothills of Mt. Sorolevu on Vanau Levu.

It was first described by D. Fuller & John Leslie Dowe in 1999.
