Monkey bay, Malawi

This palm was sold to me as Raphia Farinifera.
Is it another species or is it correct?
Thanks

I'm not an expert, but
I don't think it is. Raphia has orange midrib on the fronds

Okay thanks.
Here in Malawi I am finding it difficult to find the palm trees I want. Many try to sell you other species saying that it is the one you are looking for.
