A review of Geonoma (Arecaceae: Arecoideae, Geonomateae) was made in order to know the number of species occurring in Mexico. The review included examination of specimens housed in Mexican and foreign herbaria; additional specimens were collected in southern Mexico, to record morphological and ecological observations in the field. The species recognized for Mexico are G. interrupta (Ruiz et Pavón) Mart., G. membranacea H. Wendl ex Spruce. and G. undata Klotzsch. A key to species and descriptions, and some photographs are provided.
