Gloria Amparo Galeano Garcés (1958 – 2016)[1] was a Colombian botanist and agronomist specializing in the palm family. Galeano was a faculty member at the National University of Colombia, and was the director of at the Institute of Natural Sciences from 2003 to 2006. She received her Ph.D. from the University of Aarhus, Denmark in 1997[2].

Galeano authored taxonomic descriptions of 58 species, subspecies and varieties of plants, especially in the palm family.[3] She published 17 books, 68 scientific papers, and 15 book chapters, mostly on palm and its taxonomy, systematics, ecology, uses, traditional knowledge, ecology, conservation and harvest impacts of Colombian plants and Neotropical palms[4]. She also coauthored a field guide to the palms of the Americas.[5]

In 1996 she won the science prize from Fundación Alejandro Angel Escobar for the Field guide to American palms (co-authored by Andrew Henderson & Rodrigo Bernal)[6].

The palm species Geonoma galeanoae is named after her[7].
