It's a Pinanga, what species? Anyone

This palm has beautiful features; it's somewhat slight, about an inch and a half diameter in the trunks. It grows fairly fast. I do believe it is a Pinanga, but would like to know the species.post-3769-0-96049100-1355073263_thumb.jp

That's tough, and would be even with more pictures, and pictures of flowers or fruit. And I am not remotely a Pinanga expert. To the best of my knowledge, no one has written a monograph on the genus. The only recent treatments that I know of have been Hodel's on Thailand species, Henderson's on mainland Asia species, excluding much of their natural range, and the new Enc. of Cult. Palms (not complete).

165 inches (4,200 mm) of rain per year, 66 to 83 deg F (20 to 28 deg C) in summer, 62 to 80 deg F (16.7 to 26.7 Deg C) in winter.

Looks like one available here , that has had a few names attached to it .

Still listed as P. sarawakensis on mates site .

Looks similar to what I would have thought Pinanga philippinensis looks like with the narrow leaflets and colour and the crwonshaft?

With just one photo, I would agree with Kenny...

I am also thinking P. philipinnensis

Thanks guys for the info. I'll see if I can post more photos of this specimen. Wondering if the two names mentioned above are of the same species. You know how some palms end up with multiple names.
