D'après McVaugh (Mem. New York Bot. Gard., 18(2): 218. 1969): "Presumably the specimens cited by Berg have been destroyed; I have not located any duplicates. The species was assigned by Berg to his "Racemulosae"; it was described as having "rufo-sericeis" pubescence, coriaceous acuminate leaves with midvein sulcate above, short but evident few-flowered racemes from leafless nodes, fruiting pedicels probably 4 mm long [2'''], and shorter than the rachilla, calyx-lobes rotund, connivent, rufo-sericeous, persistent on the obversely oblong fruit. I cannot identify this with any other known species unless it be Eugenia brownsbergii Amsh."
En conséquence Flora do Brasil 2020 traite formellement (et illégitimement) ce nom comme synonyme de Eugenia brownsbergii Amshoff 1950!
