Kainer for her generous mentoring, for being a great teacher, colleague and friend. My committee contributed substantially to the conception of this dissertation, pushing me to think in new directions. I am very thankful to Erick Keys, Francis “Jack” Putz, Patricia Negreros- Castillo and Salvador Gezan for their stimulating perspectives and feedback. In particular, I am in debt with Dr. Negreros-Castillo for inspiring me to work in Quintana Roo and facilitating my landing in the Zona Maya. I would like to thank Wendell P. Cropper for his kind support at the early stages of this journey. This dissertation was enriched by the time, knowledge, and creativity of Sebastián Palmas Pérez, Angélica Navarro Martinez, Pedro Antonio Macario Mendoza, and Mirna Valdez Hernández - all who kindly collaborated in this process. Santos Colli Balam has been an irreplaceable friend, bush colleague, and cultural ambassador. Without Angel David Cab Argüelles, Edgar Can Balam, and the ever supportive X-Pichil crew, my fieldwork plans would be just an unrealized dream. Tarín Toledo Aceves, Eddie A. Ellis and Horacio Paz Hernández kindly provided essential support for accessing funds that helped make this project possible; many thanks to you all.

Abstract: This paper describes the leaf anatomy of Sabal mauritiiformis (Karst.) Griseb. & H. Wendl., Sabal mexicana Mart. and Sabal yapa Wright ex Becc., three of the four most representative species of the Yucatán Península, in Mexico. These species are locally used: in the roofing of traditional homes, as food (fruits and api- cal buds), and in the production of hats, brooms and handicrafts. Leaf samples were collected in secondary growth of lower montane rainforest in the state of Quintana Roo and in two home gardens in the state of Yuca- tán. Herbarium samples were obtained, and samples of blade and petiole were fixed in formaline-acetic acid-al- cohol. Cross incisions were made on the blade and petiole, and were dyed with safranin and toluidine blue O. The results show that S. mauritiiformis and S. yapa are morphologically alike: both are tall, slim palm trees; the leaf in S. mauritiiformis is a shorter palm-like structure compared with the other two species. The shape of the main nerve, as seen in cross section, is rectangular in the three species.
