Drosera neocaledonica is a species of carnivorous plant in the family Droseraceae. It is endemic to New Caledonia, where it occurs on Grande Terre, principally on ultramafic substrates. It is a perennial, stem-forming sundew with semi-erect leaves and conspicuous white hairs on the petioles.
The species is restricted to New Caledonia. Within Grande Terre it is recorded from the southern massif, from Port-Boisé northwards to Dogny, at elevations of about 50 to 1,280 m (160 to 4,200 ft). It grows mainly in open vegetation, including shrubland and marshes, and more occasionally in forest. Most known occurrences are on ultramafic substrates.
