Aglaia rufibarbis is a small tree in the family Meliaceae. It grows up to 5 metres (20 ft) tall with a trunk diameter of up to 5 centimetres (2 in). The bark is usually grey and pale brown, sometimes dark brown. The fruits are roundish, up to 2 cm (1 in) in diameter. The specific epithet rufibarbis is from the Latin meaning "red beard", referring to the reddish brown hairs of the indumentum.
