Cyathea klossii is a species of tree fern native to western New Guinea where it grows in rain forest from the lowlands up to an elevation of about 750 m. The trunk of this plant is erect 1-2 m tall and only 1-2 cm in diameter. Fronds are pinnate and usually 0.5-1 m in length. The stipe bears thick dark scales that are dull in appearance. Sori occur near the fertile pinnule midvein.
