Didymocheton alliaceus is a species of
flowering plant in the mahogany family,
Meliaceae. It is a tree native to the tropical Pacific islands, ranging from the
Solomon Islands to the
Caroline Islands,
Vanuatu,
Fiji,
Wallis and Futuna,
Niue,
Tonga, and the
Samoan Islands.
[1] It is most closely related to
Didymocheton mollissimus of
Malesia and mainland Southeast Asia,
D. mollis of the Bismarck Archipelago, New Guinea, and Sulawesi, and
D. muelleri of northeastern Australia.

The species was first described as Trichilia alliacea by
