Boronia koniambiensis is a species of plant in the citrus family Rutaceae and is endemic to New Caledonia. It was first formally described in 1932 by Albert Ulrich Däniker[1] then transferred to the genus Boronella in 1995 by Thomas Gordon Hartley as Boronella koniambiensis.[2] In 2015, all the species in Boronella were transferred to Boronia on the basis of molecular phylogenetic analysis.[3]

This boronia occurs on the Koniambo massif on the island of Grande Terre, the main island of New Caledonia.[4] It is listed as "Vulnerable" (as Boronella koniamboensis) on the IUCN Red List.[5]
