Dypsis ambanjae is a species of flowering plant in the family Arecaceae, endemic to the Madagascarian rainforests. The last specimen was collected more than 80 years ago, and it may be extinct.[4] Although originally treated under the genus Phloga in 1933, it was published under the currently accepted nomenclature in 1995.[2][3]
