Cowan & Cowan (1929: 67) View in CoL . = Syzygium praecox (Roxb.) Haridasan & R.R. Rao (1985: 401) View in CoL , as ‘praecoxum’, nom. superfl. Lectotype (designated here): “A native of the hilly parts of the province of Chittagong.” Icones Roxburgh Number 2500 (K!).

= Eugenia lanceifolia Roxburgh (1832: 494) View in CoL . = Strongylocalyx lanceifolius (Roxb.) Blume (1850: 89) View in CoL . Lectotype (designated here): Icones Roxburgh Number 2261 (K!).

= Syzygium roxburghianum Raizada (1948: 336) View in CoL , not S. lancifolium (Miquel) Merrill & L.M.Perry (1939: 196) View in CoL .

= Eugenia wallichii Wight (1842: 2 View in CoL , t. 536). = Syzygium wallichii (Wight) Walpers (1843: 180) View in CoL . Lectotype (designated here): “ India orientali.” Wallich Catalogue Number 3606 (lectotype K! [barcode K000793897]; isolectotypes E!, P).

Distribution:— India [Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Meghalaya, Sikkim, West Bengal], Bangladesh and Bhutan; 300‒ 1300 m.

Notes:—No type specimens were designated for Eugenia praecox or Eugenia lanceifolia , and no original material was found, so Roxburgh’s Icones are chosen here as lectotypes. Wight (1842) described Eugenia wallichii from material collected by Wallich but did not mention a type in the protologue. Wallich Catalogue Number 3606 was presumably consulted by Wight and is thus chosen as the lectotype.
