Leaves pinnate, 50-60 cm long, about 5 pairs of students pinna, top with a pair of pinnae almost as narrow rectangle, about 18 cm and a width of 6 cm or wider, apex truncate, with sharp teeth crack, with 9-11 veins; pinna top S-shaped curve is below, the upper curved sickle acuminate, slightly narrowed to the base, 30-38 cm long, 3-6 cm wide, with 3-6 bar the veins, dark green above, gray or gray-green back, veins and small veins are soft white hair and short brown densely punctate scales. Inflorescence with 2-4 branched or unbranched rare for the next bend, 11-14 cm long, rachis obviously crushed, twists, flowers arranged into two. When unripe fruit is narrowly cylindrical, red when ripe, ovate-elliptic, 16-18 mm, a diameter of about 8 mm, apex mucronate. Endosperm ruminate. Fruit from October to November.
