Syntypi: DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO: near Mukenge , s.d., Pogge 1039 ( B †) ; ibid. loc., Pogge 1095 ( B †) ; ibid. loc., Pogge 1251 ( B †) .

Notes. – This species was described from Democratic Republic of Congo, and VERDCOURT (1977) considered it poorly known. He noted that it is apparently similar to Eumachia oddonii , and may even be the same in which case the name E. poggei has priority over E. oddonii . Both of these names are provisionally accepted here following VERDCOURT. Psychotria poggei was described based on several syntypes that were deposited at B and have since been destroyed. No duplicates of these have so far been located, so further study is needed before the typification and identity of this name can be resolved.
