Hello
I have lost now more than 5 phoenix robellini because of this virus or disease, which start as black spotting on the palm frond and then by time the full fronds can be pulled from the heart of the palm and die
Any idea what it's called ? And what's the way to cure it ?

Possibly Pestalotiopsis or Pestalotia, as it seems to be common on that particular palm. You can find more info at the following link:
