Astrocaryum perangustatum is a species of palm tree in the genus Astrocaryum.[1] It has a tall stem and relatively short leaves.[2] The species was scientifically described and named in 1992 by Francis Kahn and Betty Millán. The botanist Andrew Henderson published a description of it as a variety of Astrocaryum murumuru in 1995, but this has not been accepted by other botanists.[3]
