03D887B72868830B14B4804AB3DCFBB8.taxon	distribution	Distribution, habitat and phenology: — Eugenia lisboae is presently known only from the municipality of Manaus, where it was collected in plateau formations — hillsides and hilltops — with dense vegetation on clay or sandy-clay soils. Flowers were collected from October to December, and fruits from February to June.	en	De Souza, Maria Anália D., Scudeller, Veridiana V., Mendonça, Maria Sílvia De (2016): Two new species of Eugenia (Myrtaceae) from Central Amazonia, Brazil.

03D887B72868830B14B4804AB3DCFBB8.taxon	etymology	Etymology: — the epithet honors Dr. Pedro Luiz Braga Lisboa, an important botanist from Amazonia. Experts in wood anatomy, his works were not restricted to plants, but made his study raise the profile of the forest people and its natural resources: published books and articles on floristic inventory, economic botany, ethnobotany, ethnography, and history among others subjects. His prolific career made him a renewed researcher of culture and the Amazon sustainable development.	en	De Souza, Maria Anália D., Scudeller, Veridiana V., Mendonça, Maria Sílvia De (2016): Two new species of Eugenia (Myrtaceae) from Central Amazonia, Brazil.

03D887B72868830B14B4804AB3DCFBB8.taxon	conservation	Conservation: — this species was collected only in the region of municipality of Manaus, in areas intensively collected. Due to the absence of records for other regions, and other information, it is appropriate at this time to include in DD (data deficient) of the IUCN conservation status criteria (IUCN 2016).	en	De Souza, Maria Anália D., Scudeller, Veridiana V., Mendonça, Maria Sílvia De (2016): Two new species of Eugenia (Myrtaceae) from Central Amazonia, Brazil.

03D887B72868830B14B4804AB3DCFBB8.taxon	discussion	Affinities: — gatherings of Eugenia lisboae were frequently misidentified as Eugenia citrifolia Poiret (1813: 129), from which it is distinguished through the differences cited in the diagnosis. It may be also confused with the Amazonian Eugenia dittocrepis O. Berg (1857: 292), Eugenia lambertiana De Candolle (1828: 270), Eugenia pseudopsidium Jacquin (1760: 23) and the Atlantic coastal rainforest species Eugenia neoglomerata Sobral (1995: 35). McVaugh (1969: 170) has already referred to the difficulty in distinguishing these species, mostly, at his time, due to the scarcity of available collections. These species can be distinguished between then by the characters in the following key:	en	De Souza, Maria Anália D., Scudeller, Veridiana V., Mendonça, Maria Sílvia De (2016): Two new species of Eugenia (Myrtaceae) from Central Amazonia, Brazil.

03D887B7286A830E14B486BFB6FAFEA6.taxon	diagnosis	Affinities: — Eugenia ramosii morphologically reminds Eugenia diplocampta Diels (1907: 191), but is kept apart through its simple trichomes, fasciculate and racemose inflorescences, occasionally striate hypanthium, this also occasionally constricted on both ends and the fruits then resulting ellipsoid. Eugenia diplocampta bears only fasciculate flowers, its hypanthium is smooth (never striate) and the fruits are globose or oblong-cylindrical; the seeds exhibit an vestigial raphe which extends over the cotyledons with a slightly projecting hilum, whereas in E. ramosii the raphe is outstanding covering ca. 2 / 3 of cotyledons, ending in a double apical elevation with the hilum. The blades of E. ramosii are rigid and never turn dark when dry, as is typical in E. diplocampta. Additionally, E. diplocampta is always a shrub, while E. ramosii is usually a large tree. Both species share the same habitat at Reserva Ducke, although E. diplocampta also grows in lowlands.	en	De Souza, Maria Anália D., Scudeller, Veridiana V., Mendonça, Maria Sílvia De (2016): Two new species of Eugenia (Myrtaceae) from Central Amazonia, Brazil.
