Cyathea hotteana is a species of tree fern endemic to Haiti where it grows in cloud forest at an altitude of 1000-1200 m. The trunk of this plant is erect up to 2 m tall and approximately 8 cm in diameter. Fronds are pinnate and may reach 2 m in length. Brown basal scales cover the rachis and stipe which are also brown. Sori are borne in two rows one on each side of the pinnule midvein. They are covered by shallow plate-like indusia which bear one or two clefts at the margin.C.
