Cryptocarya obovata is a species of laurel found in eastern Australian rainforests from Wyong in New South Wales to Gympie in Queensland. It can reach a height of 40 metres and has a trunk diameter of 90 cm. The leaves are alternate, obovate or oblong, 6 to 12 cm long, with a round tip. The bark is grey or brown and usually fairly smooth. Cream flowers in panicles appear between February to May and the fruit is a black globular drupe, usually ribbed. The seed germination is slow and requires the removal of the fleshy aril. It is eaten by various birds.
