1. Myrcia neocaudata A.R.Lourenço & E.Lucas View in CoL , nom. nov.
Replaced name:— Calyptranthes caudata Gardner (1845: 102) . Myrcia caudata (Gardner) A.R.Lourenço & E.Lucas (in Lourenço et al. 2018: 74) nom. illeg., not Myrcia caudata ( McVaugh 1956: 176) E.Lucas & C.E.Wilson (in Lucas et al. 2016: 659).
Type:— BRAZIL. Rio de Janeiro: Organ Mountains , March 1841, Gardner 5715 (holotype BM 000953737 ! ; isotypes K 000331223 ! , K 000331224 ! )
Calyptranthes caudata was mistakenly combined as Myrcia caudata (Gardner) A.R.Lourenço & E.Lucas in Lourenço et al. (2018). This name is illegitimate, since Marlierea caudata had been previously combined as Myrcia caudata (McVaugh) E.Lucas & C.E.Wilson in Lucas et al. (2016). They are two morphologically distinct species, occupying different geographic areas. Myrcia neocaudata occurs in the Atlantic Forest of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil ( Flora do Brasil 2020 ongoing), while M. caudata is found in forests stretching from Venezuela and Peru ( Lucas et al. 2016).
