I'm not aware of any Fatsia cultivars that are green as your is. There are seven or eight variegated ones that I know of.
Also, there are several species in the Asia-Pacific that are very similar to F. japonica ; it could be one of those, considering your location...

Fatsia polycarpa is a possibility...7 to 9 lobes and very glossy leaves.

It is other way

Moreover number of carpels are important, more in F. polycarpa
Consider this as normal form of Fatsia japonica, not a special cultivar
