-==Description==
-The yellow, green or gray solitary trunks reach over 15 m in height at a 20&nbsp;cm diameter, slightly bulging at the base.  The [[leaves]] meet the trunk with a 1 m, slightly-bulging [[crownshaft]] covered in tomentum and scales, giving it a brown to gray to white color.  The [[pinnate]] leaves extend from 60&nbsp;cm petioles at a 3 m length, recurved and bright green in color.  The leaflets are over a meter long, obliquely acute, with one fold along a prominent midrib.

-The branched [[inflorescence]] grows beneath the leaf crown, circling the trunk, producing tiny branches of male and female flowers.  The male [[flowers]] have three [[sepals]], three [[petals]] and six [[stamens]], with three petals, three sepals, and three [[staminode]]s in the females. The ovoid [[fruit]] ripen to a bright red color, containing one ellipsoidal [[seed]].<ref name=riffle/>

-==Distribution and habitat==
-''Cyphokentia macrostachya'' grows in New Caledonian [[rain forest]], from [[sea level]] to 900 m in elevation in free draining, [[schistose]] soil.  They are not tolerant of frost and usually grow in filtered light or shade until they reach the canopy top in their later life.<ref name=uhl>Uhl, Natalie W. and Dransfield, John (1987) ''Genera Palmarum - A classification of palms based on the work of Harold E.
