Vaccinium myrsinites, Lam. Low evergreen nearly or quite glabrous shrub, erect or decumbent: lvs. firm, variable, spatulate to oblong-obovate, 1/4 - 1 in. long, entire or serrulate, sometimes denticulate, mostly shining above, glabrate or puberulent beneath, strongly veiny: bracts and calyx-teeth acute or acutish; corolla cylindrical, 1/4 – 3/8 in. long: berries blue, globose. Sandy pine barrens, Va. to Fla. and La. B.M. 1550 (as V. nitidum var. decumbens).—The chief points of difference between this and the last species are the puberulent branchlets, prominently veined, bristly ciliate lvs., and acute calyx-teeth and bracts.
