Harry,
This is Rhaphidophora decursiva a trans-Himalaynan species from Nepal
eastwards through Bangladesh, N. Myanmar, N. Thailand, N. Lao PDR, N Vietnam
and into SW China. It can get very large (60 + m) tall and is distinctive
for having shoots with the foliage leaves only every 4 - 7 nodes and the
intervening nodes with a barct-like leaf (cataphyll).
Cheers
Peter
