A new cycad species, Cycas annaikalensis, has been discovered from the Malabar Coast of the southern Western Ghats of India. Although geographically distributed in a small population within the range of C. circinalis, it can be distinguished from the other described Indian Cycas species by its distinct habitat, habit, morphology of vegetative and reproductive parts, and anatomy of leaflets.
