Koordersiodendron is a monotypic genus of flowering plants belonging to the family Anacardiaceae.[1] It only contains one known species, Koordersiodendron pinnatum (Blanco) Merr.[2]

Its native range is Malesia to New Guinea. It is found in the countries of Borneo, Maluku Islands, New Guinea, Philippines and Sulawesi.[2]

The genus name of Koordersiodendron is in honour of Sijfert Hendrik Koorders (1863–1919), Dutch-Indonesian botanist and mycologist in Bogor, and herbarium director beginning in 1903.[3] It has the following synonyms; Kokkia Zipp. ex Blume and Koordersina Kuntze.[1] The Latin specific epithet of the species, pinnatum is derived from pinnatus meaning feathered.[4] The genus was first described and published in Meded. Lands Plantentuin Vol.19 on page 410 in 1898,[1] and the species was first described and published in Bull. Bur. Forest. Philipp. Islands Vol.1 on page 33 in 1903.[2]
