Didymeles
Didymeles is a genus of flowering plants. Though it was formerly treated as the only genus of the family Didymelaceae, it is in the family Buxaceae as in the APG IV system.
The genus Didymeles is restricted to Madagascar and the Comoros. In Madagascar, the two species are found in humid montane habitats, up to 1,500 m, in two disconnected areas in the north-east and south-east of the island. Fossils assignable to this genus have been found in New Zealand, suggesting a much wider distribution in the past.
