Dypsis species?

Has anyone ever heard of Dypsis magoantseca? I recently purchased a palm with that label, the guy said he has never been able to find any information on the species. I am wondering if that is a real species or if it is mislabeled. I'm leaning towards the second answer.

Don't have a pic at the moment, can add one tomorrow. Just thought I'd ask about the name tonight.

Even google can't find any information about it. I think it is probably mislabeled.

Yea, I figured when I could find nothing on the internet or in books that it was incorrect. Couldn't get any pics today, will post a couple tomorrow.

Thanks guys-

David - the genus Dypsis is rather large and hosts small to huge palms. How about some close-ups of the petioles and the base of the trunk? What is the diameter of the trunk? Did you notice if this palm had a Heel, a saxophone type root?

These answered questions would probably get more responses as to ID of your palm.
