Mike, This is a wild stab having never seen a pic of a small one but since you like it so much and I don't see any armour I'll guess Pritchardiopsis J. And if it is where did you get it  ??? .

Ok, maybe this is off the wall.... but to me it looks like either a young Washy or a livistona chinensis

The lack of spines on the leaf's petiole excludes a lot of things--Livistona, Washingtonia, Copernicia.  Don't know what it is, but it's a very nice palmate (not costapalmate) leaf.

Kinda looks like a Sabal Mauritiformis or Yapa to me.  ???

In the second photo there is a small segment of upturned leaf and it looks like the underside is white.  Could be a illusion I guess, but if it is white that definitely narrows down the choices...

Could it be a Cryosophila?  Not sure of the species but it's not warscewiczii if it is a Cryosophila.

Matt-

If it doesn't have a heel, I like your choice. If it does, I like mine.  :D

Mikey?

Heel or no heel?

Bill,

I like your guess too...it's just the brown streaks on the petiole that are throwing me off.  I'm pretty sure my mauritiiformis doesn't have this.  But my Crysophila warscewiczii has more "fuzzy stuff" on the petioles.

:) Hi Allan,

The reason I decided to include a prize was have many

pics, some of those are pretty hard to guess, but lots of fun. That was within the top 10.

In stead of the Licuala seeds, I.ve got someting just as

good If not Better (L.pre-arti should be there already)

How's Calyptrocalyx 'sp'  Bedang Dawn noda noda.

have seeds that are not to far from being ripe,

This is in Jeff.M's collection and what a stunning looking

Palm. (under 30 plants in cultivation,A bit like Hens Teeth. I think you deserve something for that effort.

                              Regards Mikey  :)
