A study on the anatomical structures of four rattan species: manau (Calamus manan Miq.), semambu (Calamus scipionum Lour.), sega (Calamus caesius BL.), and sabut (Daemonorops crinatus BL.) has been done and presented in this paper. The result showed that diameter of metaxylem vessels were larger on the central region than those on the peripher region. Diameter of metaxylem vessels were larger on the central region than those on the peripher region. Diameter of metaxylem vessels in manau rattan canes was larger than that of others rattan examined. On the peripher region it was almost similar to those of sega rattan canes which had canes diameter one third of diameter manau rattan canes. Fiber sheaths on the peripher region had differences shape with those on the central region. Generally fiber sheaths on the peripher region had curves shape while on the central region was oval. Manau had conical shape of fiber sheaths around 1-3 rows surrounded peripher area, while those in semambu and sabut were oval, 1-2 rows and those in sega had triangle or square shape with 1-2 rows cell surrounded peripher region. Fiber sheaths shape on the peripher region can be as one of temporary distinctive feature among rattan species were examined
