Daemonorops is a genus of rattan palms in the family Arecaceae.
They are found primarily in the tropics and subtropics of southeastern Asia.
The stems of the Daemonorops are harvest for their cores, which is used for everything from canes to furniture. The fruits of certain species, in particular Daemonorops draco, produces a red resin known as "Dragon's blood".
Polysaccharides found in some Daemonorops species are know for their medicinal anti-coagulant properties.
