74. Eugenia sablanensis Elmer Leafl. Philip. Bot. 1 (1908) 328. 
Proxime E. densinerviae accedens: differt floribus minoribus, 2-3 mm 
diametro; foliis saepissime admodum minoribus angustiorib usque, basi 
magis c-uneatis, apice magis acuminatis.

This species can only tentatively be held distinct from E. densinervia, both 
being probably too closely related to E. bracteolata Wight to be held separate. 
On the tyjre specimens, the flowers differ distinctly in size, and it is usually 
possible to estimate the size of the flowers of fruiting material, but it is very 
difficult to get correlating characters by which sterile specimens or those with 
immature flowers can be distinguished. The leaves of E. densinervia are nearly 
always slightly longer and wider (especially at the base^) than those of E. sab- 
lanensis, the apex is nearly always rounded, while in the latter species there is 
nearly always a distinct though short acumen ; further the branches of the 
inflorescence of E. densinervia are usually distinctly stouter. Nevertheless, the 
species nearly or quite intergrade on all these characters. All the collections 
here referred to E. densin'ervia are unquestionably of that species, several under 
E. sablanensis have immature flowers and are so identified on the faith of the 
other characters, which are of doubtful validity.

75. Eugenia incrassata Elmer Leafl. Philip. Bot. 2 (1909) 581. 
Infloreseentiis terminalibus, triehotomo-eymosis, apice subplanis, cir- 
citer 1 cm longis, multifloris; floribus breviter pedicellatis, bibracteatis, 
admodum parvis : calycis tubo turbrnato, lobis 4, parvis sed sat conspicnis,

subcoriaceis, orbicularibus vel obovato-orbicularibus, basi acute acuminatis 
decurrentibusque, apice in acumen breve obtusum subito contractis; venis 
utrinque 18—25, subconfertis, in venam submarginalem coalitis.

In general the leaves of the northern specimens are longer, actually or propor- 
tionally, than those from Mount Mariveles, but they are well linked together by 
Whitford 150, the nomenclatorial type.
