Eugenia luschnathiana . The Pitomba. S. P. I. No. 37017. 
Foliage and fruits of the pitomba, from the garden of 
Col. Elvidio Esteres Assis, at Cabulla, Bahia, Brazil. 
The brilliant yellow color, and agreeable, penetrating 
odor of this fruit make it very interesting. Its flavor, 
though somewhat acid, is pleasant, and is used principal- 
ly in the manufacture of jams and jellies, for which 
purpose it is highly esteemed by the Brazilians. Photo
