77. Eugenia ugoensis sp. nov. 
Affinis E. congestae : floribus ignotis : infrutescentibus terminalibus, 
brevibus, fructibus subglobosis, calycis lobis 4 coronatis: foliis oblongis 
usque ad obovatis, basi aeutis, margine revolutis, apice in acumen breve 
angustum obtusum angustatis; venis utrinque 25-30, confertis. 
Infrutescences terminal, excluding the fruits 1-1.5 cm long, the rachis 
comparatively stout (about 2 mm in diameter), terete or somewhat 
quadrangular, not or shortly branched, bearing the scars of many fallen 
flowers : fruits described as green, yellow, and red, probably indicating 
stages in maturity, globose or depressed-globose, attaining 1.7 cm dia- 
meter, thin-walled, 1-celled, 1 -seeded, crowned by 4 somewhat conspicuous 
calyx-lobes 1.5-2 mm long, with the same range of width, obtuse or 
rounded at the apex. 
A tree 5 m high, with a trunk described as 30 cm in diameter, the 
somewhat stout branchlets covered with dark-brown or dark-gravish- 
brown bark : leaves with petioles 1-2.5 mm long, the lamina coriaceous 
or subcoriaceous, varying from oblong-oblanceolate to obovate, 2.5-4 cm 
long,' 1-2.5 cm wide, the base acute, the margin revolute, at the apex 
narrowed into a slender obtuse acumen 2.5-8 mm long; primary lateral 
veins on each side of the midrib 25-30, usually nearly straight but also 
forking or anastomosing, equally elevated and conspicuous on both 
surfaces, their apices forming a definite submarginal vein.

78. Eugenia acrophila sp. nov. 
Inflorescentiis terminalibus, brevibus, floribus congestis : calycis tubo 
turbinato, lobis 4, rotundatis; corolla calyptrata; staminibus admodum 
pauc-is ; fructibus globosis : foliis eoriaceis, parvis, saepius elliptico- 
lanceolatis, basi aeutis, margine revolutis, apice breviter obtuseque acu- 
minatis; venis utrinque 8-12, haucl confertis. 
Inflorescences terminal, less than 2 cm long, including flowers or fruit, 
not or hardly prolonged beyond the leaves, the cymes trichotomous, often 
sessile, the white flowers at the extremities of the short branches, mostly 
in threes, the forks of the inflorescence with short but broad bractlets : 
calyx-tube turbinate, about 3.5 mm long, 3.5 mm wide at the base of the 
lobes; calyx-lobes 4, about 1 mm long, 2 mm wide at the base, rounded 
at the apex; corolla calyptrate, about 1.5 mm in circumference; stamens 
few for the genus (about 20), the filaments 2-4 mm long, the suborbicular 
anthers 0.4 mm in diameter; style 3 mm long, subulate; ovary 2-celled: 
fruit globose, less than 1 cm in diameter, thick-walled, 2-celled. 
A tree attaining a height of 9 m and a trunk-diameter of 30 cm, the 
branchlets often roughened by the scars of fallen leaves, covered with 
pinkish-gray or brownish bark: leaves with petioles 1-3 mm long, the
