Inside /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/tex/latex/. You'll need  
administrator rights to put files there, either via drag-and-drop  
from the Finder, or using "sudo mkdir", "sudo mv" and "sudo cp" from  
the Terminal. In both cases you'll need to run "sudo texhash"  
afterwards.

See also the output of:

	kpsewhich --progname=latex --show-path=tex

Inside /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/doc/latex/.

See also the output of:

	kpsewhich --progname=texdoc --show-path="TeX system documentation"

And for the relative roles of the different texmf trees, see:

	/Library/teTeX/share/texmf.gwtex/README.howtexfindsfiles.txt
	/Library/teTeX/share/texmf.gwtex/README.texmf.gwtex.txt

as well as:

Hope this helps,
