Abstract

The new species Eugenia naraveana is described and illustrated here. It is only known at the windward slopes of Cofre de Perote volcano, and it grows in the upper tropical montane cloud forest. Its closest relatives are Eugenia sotoesparzae and Eugenia mexicana, but they differ from the new species because they grow in tropical perennial forests and coastal dunes, in addition to the differences in their morphological structures. This new species breaks the typical altitude range of Eugenia in Veracruz, Mexico, being registered above 2,100 up to 2,600 meters.
