Are these yatay seeds?

These don't seem to match what palmpedia has listed.  I bagged them up in perlite and hydroton, and some others in peatmoss/hydroton.  Keeping them in the growbox around 85f, and another batch on a heat pad.  Got these off ebay FWIW. 

Top pic is mine, the bottom two pics are from palmpedia.

They look the same as the yatay seeds I got from RPS.

@Fallen Munk That's good to hear.  I trust RPS.  Thanks.  Are you growing some? 

BTW were you the one who suggested I try leaving the grow lights on 24 hours?

Yes, and yes.  So far no action on mine, but I'm not heating them over the winter.  They are kept in a room that's under 60F.  They'll probably pop in late spring or early summer.  I run my grow lights 24 hours if I have a lot of more rare palms that I want to grow up fast.  I did that last winter with my Patrix hybrids and got a full seasons growth over the first winter.

This is an image of wild collected seed from Argentina.  Sorry,  but I don't have a closer image, perhaps viewers can zoom in ?

OK, I tried the edit feature.  Here is an attempt at a closer look,  I am a complete doofus with the computer stuff, so 'maybe' this is better.
