List of Myrcia species

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The following species in the flowering plant genus Myrcia are accepted by Plants of the World Online.[1] Workers in the field have perceived this genus as difficult to study and its species to be difficult to identify, in part due to the sheer number of species and the lack of congruence between subclades erected on the basis of morphology and subclades revealed by molecular methods.[2]
