TL;DR: Myrteola (Myrtaceae: Myrtinae) is a South American genus of cool maritime climates of southern South America and high elevations of the tropical mountains that is closely related to Austromyrtus.
Abstract: Myrteola (Myrtaceae: Myrtinae) is a South American genus of cool maritime climates of southern South America and high elevations of the tropical mountains. Four taxa are recognized: M. acerosa (Berg) Burret, M. microphylla Berg var. microphylla, M. microphylla var. glabrata Berg, and M. nummularia (Poiret) Berg. Myrteola's closest relatives are: Ugni in South America; Lophomyrtus, Neomyrtus, Myrtastrum, and some species of Austromyrtus in Australasia; and Myrtus communis of the Mediterranean. Certain species assigned to Austromyrtus are not closely related to Myrteola and seem
