Cycas basaltica is a species of cycad native to Australia, found in the far north of Western Australia in the Kimberley region. It has 30 or more leaves in the crown, forming a bowl shaped, inward facing leaf crown, each leaf 80–125 cm long, pinnate, with 140-210 leaflets. The female cones are open, with sporophylls 17–24 cm long, densely red-brown tomentose, and the male cones are solitary and erect, narrow conical, 18–24 cm long and 7–9 cm diameter. It is typically found growing on basaltic volcanic rock soils in eucalyptus groves near the Drysdale and Lawley Rivers, and nearby offshore islands, and is listed as secure in conservation status.
