Palm tree help??
I've had this palm tree for about 5 years now, I'm not sure the exact species- it's some exotic varietal I inherited from my uncle- and it's been rapidly declining over the last 6 months or so (check the plant profile for older photos). I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with it and how to save it; I'm leaning towards a pest of some kind, but I don't know if there's also a fungal issue or disease or something going on. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, I'd really like to save it since it's sentimental. #happyplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantaddict #planttherapy #plantcorner #beforeandafter #pestcontrol #rareplants #tropicalplants #help

This could be a few different things, likely a fungal infection or blight of some kind but do also check for pests like you mentioned.
Make sure the plant isn't being over-watered and suffering from rot as a result besides that trim off infected parted with sterilized sheers and spray with neem oil/ Castile soap to reduce infection.
Make sure it's getting proper air circulation
And check the soil for dampness for long periods of time which will point you towards rot.
Hope that helps 🌱
