65. Eugenia savannarum Standley & Steyermark, Publ. Field Columb. Mus., Bot. Ser. View in CoL 23: 132 (1944)

EOO: 43,477.326 km ². AOO: 124 km ². Evaluation of IUCN: Least concern.

Eugenia savannarum is distributed from the state of Chiapas, Mexico, to Guatemala and Belize ( Barrie 2020, WCSP 2020). The estimated extent of occurrence (EOO) exceeds the thresholds for a threatened category under the criterion B, whilst the area of occupancy (AOO) would likely exceed the thresholds of the Endangered category if the remaining habitat available is taken in account. The occurrence biome is the Humid Tropical Forest and the transition ecotone between the Seasonally Dry Tropical Forest and the Temperate Forest from 50 to 920 m elev. There are more than 10 known location based on 47 collections registered in the Mesoamerican region. In Chiapas, Mexico, the species occurs in four regions (Mezcalapa, Selva Lacandona, Los Bosques and Tulijá Tzeltal Chol), in Guatemala most of the collections are in the region of influence of Lake Peten Itza, and in Belize in the Mountain Pine Ridge Forest Reserve and in Noj Kaax H´men Elijio Panti Forest Reserve. The habitat is in a good state of conservation. In this way, Eugenia savannarum is classified here as Least Concern (LC).

Specimens examined:— MEXICO. Chiapas: Martínez S. 7044 (MEXU!). Belize: Molina R. 229 (F); Guatemala: Contreras 6113 (LL).
