Melanodendron integrifolium (black cabbage tree) is one of the endemic trees in the Asteraceae family from the island of Saint Helena (South Atlantic Ocean). It is related to the Saint Helenan gumwoods (Commidendrum spp.) and is the commonest of the remaining cabbage tree species of Saint Helena, although it is considered endangered due to the restricted population size.
