Remijia duckei is characterized by its rather large leaves (within Remijia) with hirtellous to pilosulous or strigose pubescence and its well developed, generally racemiform inflorescences with medium-sized flowers that have the calyx limb frequently splitting irregularly. Steyermark described these calyx limbs as spathaceous, but the limb is open in bud and dentate and then divides irregularly rather than fused into a closed structure and splitting consistently along one side. It is similar to Remijia hubbardiorum from the same region; their differences were not discussed in the protologue of Remijia hubbardiorum. Remijia duckei is also similar to Remijia amphithrix from southeastern Colombia, their distinctions are also not clear.
