FIGURE 3. Anatomy of Eugenia species: petioles (A, C), and leaf blades (B, D–R). A–B, E, G–J, O–P. E. michaelneei Villarroel & Faria, Wood et al. 25873 (isotypes). C–D, F, K–N, Q–R. E. sonderiana O. Berg, J.E.Q. Faria 4650. A, C. Xylem (x): almost closed (A) and almost plane (C). B, D. Midvein: slightly convex (B), and prominent abaxially (D). E–F. Palisade parenchyma (pp): second layer shorter (E), and with the same high (F) than the first layer; glands (g). G, K. Epidermis: protoplasmatic projections (G, black arrow) in the external periclinal cell wall present or not (K). H, L. Stomata (open arrows). I–J, M–R. Adaxial (I–J, M–N), and abaxial (O–P, Q–R) epidermis: overlying cells (white arrows) associated with the glands with high (I–J, O–P) and low (M–N, Q–R) densities; high density of stomata (O–P, Q–R); trichomes (N, Q, lozenge arrows). A–H, K-L. Transversal sections. I–J, M–R. Paradermal sections. Scales: A–D, I, O, Q. 200 μm; E–F, J, M–N, P, R. 100 μm; G–H, K–L. 30 μm.
