Juania australis
The story
On the isolated Juan Fernández Islands, far out in the southeast Pacific Ocean west of Chile, the Chonta palm stands as a silent sentinel of evolutionary isolation. As the sole species within its genus, this solitary-trunked tree has watched over its volcanic island home for generations, existing nowhere else on Earth.
