''Breynia disticha'' is a plant in the family Phyllanthaceae, first described in 1776. It is native to New Caledonia and Vanuatu in the western Pacific, but naturalized on a wide assortment of other islands around the world , as well as in the U.S. state of Florida.

''Breynia disticha'' presumably is pollinated by leafflower moths in its native range, like other species of plants in the genus ''Breynia''. Leafflower moths have been reared from fruit of this species in New Caledonia.
