The generic name is derived from "Aussie", a shortened form of Australian, and "draco", from Latin meaning dragon.

It lacks a keel or crest and is convex on top, with a median narrow deep groove not reaching the tip, but flat at the bottom.

As far as can be judged from the empty elliptical tooth-sockets, the lower jaws carry at least five pairs of teeth, which are rather large and become more outwards inclining and procumbent towards the front.

Kellner et al. assigned Aussiedraco to the Pteranodontoidea, a clade roughly containing the same species as the Ornithocheiroidea sensu Unwin.
