Thanks for posting. Wonder if any of these 5 newly named species are good eating?

I wish edibility (& palatability) were more commonly included in these botanical descriptions. Sounds like some of these have good sized fruits (& presumably good sized nuts as well).

Yeah, i often get the impression that botanists don't eat fruits and nuts. :D
I would guess some of those 5 would be edible because some look very close to B. edulis.
