Myoporum rimatarense was a small tree from Rimatara Island in French Polynesia, known only from type specimens and declared extinct in 2021. It is not grown as a garden or houseplant, so care advice does not apply in practice.
Myoporum rimatarense was a plant in the figwort family, Scrophulariaceae and was endemic to Rimatara Island in French Polynesia. It is only known from the type specimen collected in 1921 and 1934 and was declared extinct in 2021 by the IUCN Red List.
Myoporum rimatarense was only found on Rimatara Island. The type specimen was collected on a sandy beach near the village of Amaru.
