I guess this is the one you were just talking about. Looks like Chrysalidocarpus acuminum to me. Black specks and petiole and leaf base colour fits well.  Being a relatively high altitude species I’ve been on the hunt for one of these for a while, good to know they are being grown in Aus (if I’m correct).

I don't really agree Harry.  Crownshafts on Chrysalidocarpus basilongus are more white, and the speckles are on the crownshafts but not further up the petiole and rachis.  Photos of both a trunking one and the same plant a few years younger.

Regarding the plant in question, it is hard to tell if that brownish color on the crownshafts will be retained or if that is a juvenile feature.  The one trunk on the far left which appears to have it's first ring exposed, so is likely the most mature of the group doesn't have as much of that yellow/brown coloring.

Thanks for the clarity , Tracy , I have a very young Basilonga and it doesn’t really have a crown shaft to speak of but it does have very fragile petioles that fold or break from the weight of the large leaflets . I have wore them up for support until the palm gets a bit older. Harry

I take it from the photo it is a clustering palm? That would rule out basilongus. If it had more color in the base I'd guess something in the baronii complex which is a very broad guess. I haven't seen many photos of C. acuminum, but the leaves look right. Colin already knows I'm very weak with IDs. 😁 No chance I can ID the palm but I agree with others those black speckles look somewhat familiar.
