Dinosperma is a genus of plant containing the single species Dinosperma erythrococcum, commonly known as tingletongue, clubwood or nutmeg, and is endemic to north-eastern Australia. It is a tree usually with trifoliate leaves arranged in opposite pairs, the leaflets lance-shaped to oblong, and panicles of small white flowers, later bright orange to red, slightly fleshy follicles containing shiny, bluish black seeds.
Tingletongue grows in rainforest, often dry rainforest, at altitudes from 60 m (200 ft) to 1,000 m (3,300 ft) and occurs from the Kutini-Payamu National Park in far north Queensland to the headwaters of the Clarence and Richmond Rivers in north-eastern New South Wales.
