    A coconut palm is a type of palm tree. A coconut palm is a palm tree, but not all palm trees are coconut palms. Get it. In other words there are many different kinds of palm trees, but a coconut is one of those types.

    For example..

    A jelly palm is a type of palm tree, but not all palms are jelly palms. People who arent experienced with palm ID will basically look at most palms and say they look the same.
