Cyathea decora is a species of tree fern native to Ecuador and possibly other parts of western South America.[citation needed] Little is known about this species.[citation needed] The name is the source of some taxonomic confusion: as of July 2021, Plants of the World Online regarded "Cyathea decora" as an unplaced name,[1] and it was not listed at all in World Ferns.[2]

Cyathea decora is not to be confused with the similarly named Cyathea decorata.
