Abstract:

Myrcia cymosa is taken up as based on Aulomyrcia cymosa (and not Calyptromyrcia cymosa). M. almasensis is described as new and attention is drawn to the possible dioecy of this species. Psidium pohlianum is lectotypified and P. rigidum is placed in synonymy. Myrceugenia and Blepharocalyx are recorded as new to Bahia.
