Cryptocarya rhodosperma is a tree that typically grows to a height of up to 25 m (82 ft), its stems usually buttressed.

The flowers are greenish, faintly and possibly unpleasantly perfumed, arranged in panicles about the same length or slightly longer than the leaves.

[2][3] Cryptocarya rhodosperma was first formally described in 1989 by Bernard Hyland in Australian Systematic Botany from specimens collected in 1983.
