Discussion

Of conservation concern.

Sideroxylon alachuense is characterized by leaves that are green and lustrous adaxially and densely silvery- sericeous abaxially. T. D. Pennington (1990) did not account for S. alachuense. This species has been included previously within S. tenax (A. Cronquist 1945c) and S. lanuginosum. Sideroxylon alachuense is most similar to S. tenax; Anderson enumerated significant differences between these species in twig color and indument, abaxial leaf surface indument color, and lengths of sepals, anthers, and styles. The straight, appressed, silvery hairs of S. alachuense are distinctive among North American species. There are 27 individuals known from four counties in Florida and one in Georgia.
