= Myrcia kiaerskowiana Glaziou , nom. nud., Bull. Soc. Bot. France 54 (Mém. 3c): 217. 1908.

= Myrcia kiaerskowii Glaziou , nom. nud., Bull. Soc. Bot. France 54 (Mém. 3c): 214. 1908.
Specimens examined:— BRAZIL. Goiás : Glaziou 21176 (G!, K000343453 !, K000343452 !, US) .
This species was collected only once by Glaziou in Goiás (n. 21176) near Lagoinha, close to Santa Luzia (currently Luziânia, Goiás) in March 1895. He cited this collection number under similar specific epithets (both honouring Danish botanist Hjalmar Kiaerskou) as manuscript names: M. kiaerskowiana and M. kiaerskowii , occasionally spelled as “ M. kiaerskoviana ” (P00549401) and “ M. kiaerskovii ”. All are specimens of M. amazonica with somewhat larger leaves than average, such as are commonly found in the states of Goiás and Mato Grosso.
