Coccothrinax yunquensis, the yuruguana del Yunque,[1] is a palm which is endemic to southern Cuba.[2] It is reported to be restricted to El Yunque, a limestone mountain[1] in Guantánamo Province.

Henderson and colleagues (1995) considered C. yunquensis to be a synonym of Coccothrinax salvatoris.[3]
