Sinónimo: Notelaea azorica Tutin. Árbol siempreverde, de hasta 8 m de altura, con la corteza de color claro. Sus hojas son enteras, opuestas, lanceoladas u ovadas, glabras, de hasta 6 cm de largo y 3 cm de ancho. Flores axilares, blancas, de pequeño tamaño. El fruto es ovoide, de color azul morado o marrón en estado maduro y hasta 1,5 cm de largo. Especie endémica de las Azores, donde se distribuye por todas las islas excepto Graciosa. Está presente en acantilados costeros, barrancos, laderas y “malpaíses” o campos de lavas recientes, entre los 50 y 750 m de altitud, siendo un componente muy típico de las formaciones de monteverde situadas a menor cota. En el pasado su madera era muy buscada, motivo por el cual, junto a la competencia con la flora introducida, la degradación del hábitat, el efecto del ganado y otros factores de amenaza, las poblaciones de este árbol escasean en ciertas islas. Aún así, llega a ser común en algunas zonas. En Iturraran se encuentra en la zona 1.
Synonym: Notelaea azorica Tutin. From ‘Macaronesian.org’ Evergreen tree, up to 8 m tall, with light-colored bark. Its leaves are entire, opposite, lanceolate or ovate, glabrous, up to 6 cm long and 3 cm wide. Small, white, axillary flowers. The fruit is ovoid, purple-blue or brown when ripe and up to 1.5 cm long. Endemic species of the Azores, where it is distributed throughout all the islands except Graciosa. It is present in coastal cliffs, ravines, slopes and "malpaíses" or recent lava fields, between 50 and 750 m altitude, being a very typical component of the Monteverde formations located at lower elevations. In the past, its wood was highly sought after, which is why, together with competition with introduced flora, habitat degradation, the effect of livestock and other threatening factors, populations of this tree are scarce on certain islands. Even so, it becomes common in some areas. In Iturraran it is in zone 1.
