Characteristics:— Coffea neoleroyi differs from all other African Coffea species formerly placed in Psilanthus by its small obovate leaves (apex rounded), and from C. semsei (Bridson) A.P.Davis by having rounded (vs. distinctly apiculate) calyculi lobes and pedicellate fruits (vs. sessile). Further morphological information for this species can be found in Leroy (1981) and Bridson (1982).
