Asteromyrtus symphyocarpa, also known as the liniment tree, is a species of plant in the myrtle family Myrtaceae that is native to New Guinea and northern Australia.

In Australia, the species grows as a multi-stemmed shrub or small tree, usually to a height of 3–12 m, but can exceed that in New Guinea.

[1] It has delicate weeping, aromatic foliage, bright yellow to orange flowers in globular inflorescences, and seed pods along the branches.

[2] The species is adapted to infertile, acidic and waterlogged soils in the lowland tropics around the Gulf of Carpentaria.

It also occurs across much of northern Australia from the Top End of the Northern Territory eastwards to the Cape York Peninsula of Far North Queensland.
