EUGENIA CILIATO-SETOSA sp. nov. % Syzygium ? 
Arbor parva 2 ad 5 m alta, ramulis foliis subtus ad nervos 
inflorescentiisque insigniter ciliato-setosis ; foliis oblongo-lanceo- 
latis, usque ad 20 cm longis, acuminatis, basi cordatis, brevissime 
petiolatis, nervis lateralibus marginalibusque subtus prominen- 
tibus; inflorescentiis terminalibus, paniculatis, ut videtur pauci- 
floris, fructibus inaequilateraliter obovoideis, 1.5 ad 2 cm longis. 
A small tree or a shrub 2 to 5 m high, the branches, nerves 
on the lower surfaces of the leaves, especially the midribs, and 
the inflorescence prominently ciliate-setose. Branches terete, 
grayish, slender. Leaves opposite, oblong-lanceolate, 14 to 20 
cm long, 3 to 6 cm wide, chartaceous, the upper surface glabrous, 
olivaceous, shining, the lower paler, the midrib prominently, the 
lateral nerves sparingly ciliate-setose, apex sharply and slenderly 
acuminate, the base rather abruptly rounded-cordate; nerves 
very prominent on the lower surface, 20 to 25 on each side of the 
midrib, anastomosing in nearly straight marginal nerves as 
prominent as the lateral ones ; petioles ciliate-setose, about 2 mm 
long. Inflorescence terminal, ciliate-setose, paniculate, 10 to 
15 cm long including the elongated peduncle, the branches few, 
spreading, apparently few-flowered. Immature buds obovoid, 
about 4 mm long. Fruits inequilaterally obovoid, 1.5 to 2 cm 
long, nearly smooth, green when fresh. 
Luzon, Province of Cagayan, Abulug River, Bur. Sci. 13974 Ramos 
(type), with immature buds and fruits. For. Bur. 11590, 13974 Curran, 
with fruits, all collected in January, 1912, in dipterocarp forests 30 to 50 
meters above sea-level. 
A most striking species, differing from all the Philippine forms, and 
from most or quite all of the previously described species in the genus by 
its prominently ciliate-setose branches, leaves, and inflorescence. 
EUGENIA PROPINQUA sp. nov. § Syzygium. 
Species E. pauciveniae C. B. Rob., simillima et affinis, differt 
foliis minoribus, distincte petiolatis, floribus ut videtur mino- 
ribus. 
A tree {fide Ramos), 10 m high, glabrous, the branches terete, 
somewhat grayish and reddish-brown, the young branchlets 
slightly compressed, slender. Leaves numerous, crowded, coria- 
ceous, shining on both surfaces, oblong-elliptic to obovate, the 
base acute, the apex rounded, usually broadly so, 3 to 5 cm long, 
1.5 to 3 cm wide; nerves about 10 on each side of the midrib, 
indistinct, irregular, very obscurely anastomosing; petioles 3 to 
4 mm long. Inflorescence terminal, many-flowered, 3 to 4 cm
