Myristica yunnanensis is a species of plant in the family Myristicaceae.

It is found in southern Yunnan, China, northern Thailand,[2] and in Thanh Hóa Province, Vietnam.

[2] At the time of the latest IUCN assessment in 1998, Myristica yunnanensis was only known from about 20 trees in two localities in Xishuangbanna in Yunnan; it was assessed as "Critically Endangered".

[1] However, later it has been found to have a somewhat broader distribution reaching Thailand and Vietnam too.

The Vietnamese record is from the Bến En National Park.
