===Common Names:===
???

===Habitat:===
Madagascan rainforest

===Description:===
A very attractive, medium sized palm, usually suckering (altho occasionally solitary), with a very white, powdery crownshaft and thin, closely spaced, neatly arranged leaflets. The trunks are about 10-15cm (4"-6") in diameter. 

===General:===
Possibly related to '''''[[Dypsis_onilahensis]]'''''.

===Culture:===
This palm requires medium shade as a seedling, however, its probably
an emergent palm, and thus will be able to take full sun as an adult.
Otherwise, the standard moist, but well drained situation, possibly
with a high amount of organic matter in the soil. It doesn't like to dry out at all.
