Syzygium unipunctatum is a small tree in the family Myrtaceae. It is endemic to the rainforests of the Wet Tropics of Queensland.
This species was first described by Bernie Hyland as Waterhousea unipunctata and was published in the Australian Journal of Botany in 1983.[4] In 2006 Craven, Biffin and Ashton published a paper in which they transferred all species in the related genera Acmena, Acmenosperma, Cleistocalyx, Piliocalyx and Waterhousea to Syzygium.[3]
The genus name Syzygium comes from the Ancient Greek sýzygos, meaning 'joined', 'yoked', or 'paired', and refers to the paired leaves. The species epithet unipunctatum is derived from the Latin words unus, meaning 'one' or 'single', and punctum, meaning 'puncture', 'spot', or 'moment'. The meaning of the epithet is unclear.[5]
Syzygium punctatum has a range that is restricted to rainforested areas of north east Queensland. However it is widespread within that area and can be found at altitudes from sea level to 1,200 m (3,900 ft).[6]
This species is listed by the Queensland Department of Environment and Science as least concern.[1] As of 18 October 2022, it has not been assessed by the IUCN.
