33. Myrciaria glazioviana (Kiaersk.) G.M.Barroso ex Sobral (2006a: 137) [ Fig. 4N, O ; Fig. 6N, O ]

Endemic to the Atlantic Forest ( Sobral et al. 2009) and previously considered restricted to the southeast region of Brazil by Sobral et al. (2010). The first records of the species from the northeast region of Brazil, from the States of Pernambuco and Bahia, are presented here.

Trees and shrubs 4–7 m tall. This species differs from Myrciaria ferruginea by having longer leaves (7–11 cm long) and a flat or raised midvein on the adaxial lamina surface; it differs from M. floribunda by having pilose leaves, calyx lobes and hypanthium and by longer bracts.
