EUGENIA CALC I CO LA sp. nov. § Syzygium. 
Arbor glabra circiter 8 m alta, ramis ramulisque teretibus 
tenuibusque; foliis oppositis, coriaceis, in siccitate pallide oli- 
vaceis, nitidis, oblongo-ellipticis, utrinque angustatis, basi acutis, 
apice prominente longe subrostrato-acuminatis, utrinque minute 
glandulosis; nervis lateralibus tenuibus, dense dispositis, pri- 
mariis numerosis, quam secondariis vix magis prominentibus ; 
inflorescentiis terminalibus et in axillis superioribus, 2 ad 3.5 cm 
longis; floribus sessilibus, in ramulis ultimis confertis; caly- 
cibus infundibuliformibus, 3.5 ad 4 mm longis, obscure late 
4-lobatis. 
A glabrous tree about 8 m high, the branches and branchlets 
slender, terete, somewhat brownish, the younger ones very pale- 
gray and 1 to 1.5 mm in diameter. Leaves opposite, pale-oliva- 
ceous when dry, of the same color on both surfaces, slightly 
shining, coriaceous, 3.5 to 6 cm long, 2 to 2.5 cm wide, oblong- 
elliptic, subequally narrowed to the acute base and to the prom- 
inently subrostrate-acuminate apex, the acumen up to 1 cm 
in length, 2 to 3 mm wide, blunt, both surfaces minutely gland- 
ular-punctate, the glands very numerous, more prominent on the 
lower than on the upper surface; petioles reddish-brown, 3 to 5 
mm long. Inflorescence cymose, terminal and in the upper 
axils, 2 to 3.5 cm long, dark-olivaceous when dry, minutely gland- 
ular, the flowers sessile, white, crowded on the tips of the ulti- 
mate branchlets, 3 to 7 on each branchlet. Calyx funnel-shaped, 
3.5 to 4 mm long, mouth about 2.5 mm in diameter, with 4, very 
shallow, rounded lobes. Petals entirely united, forming a calyp- 
tra about 2.5 mm in diameter. Stamens indefinite, 6 to 7 mm 
long; style about 8 mm long. Bractlets subtending the flowers 
evident, oblong-ovate, obtuse, persistent, 0.5 to 1 mm long. 
Luzon, Benguet Subprovince, near Baguio, Merrill 97i6, May 16, 1914, 
in thickets about limestone cliffs and boulders, altitude about 1,300 meters. 
This species belongs in the group with Eugenia perpallida Merr. and 
E. parva Merr., but among other characters is distinguished from both by 
its leaves being distinctly glandular-punctate on both surfaces. 
EUGENIA CAPOASENSIS sp. nov. § Syzygium. 
Frutex 1 ad 4 m altus, glaber, ramis ramulisque teretibus; 
foliis oppositis, oblongo-obovatis ad late oblongo-oblanceolatis, 
coriaceis, nitidis, eglandulosis, usque ad 9 cm longis, apice rotun- 
datis, obtusis vel breviter latissime obtuse acuminatis, basi 
angustatis, cuneatis, nervis primariis utrinque circiter 15, te- 
nuibus, obscuris, quam secundariis vix magis prominentibus; 
cymis terminalibus, paucifloris, usque ad 6 cm longis, floribus
