Aglaia cucullata is a tree with a broad, rounded crown of arching branches; it usually grows up to 15 metres tall, occasionally to 30 metres. The straight, cylindrical bole can be free of branches for up to 10 metres and up to 100cm in diameter, sometimes with plank buttresses up to 3 metres high and sometimes with pneumatophores up to 7 metres away from the bole and up to 60cm high. The tree provides an important heavy timber that is harvested from the wild and much used locally for purposes such as construction and boat building. The wood is traded in quantity in New Guinea as 'Amoora' timber.
