Vaccinium myrsinites ye una planta con flores de la familia de les ericácees conocida col nome común de arándanu brillosu. Ye nativa del sureste de los Estaos Xuníos, creciendo montés ente Alabama y Carolina del Sur hasta la península de Florida, anque puede atopase tamién en llugares más al oeste, como Luisiana.[1]
Esti parrotal erecto y abondosu de cañes puede algamar un metro d'altor. Ye rizomatuso y puede formar colonies bien grandes, reparándose dalgunes cubriendo un kilómetru de terrén.[1] Ye xeneralmente perenne, pero dalgunes son caduques. El tarmu tien ramines verdes angulares. Les fueyes, coriacees, ovalaes y de color verde o verde abuxáu, tienen casi un centímetru de llargu y tien cantos nidios o vagamente dentaos. Les partes inferiores son glandulares. Les flores son en forma de Y o cilíndriques, de color blancu a rosa con tintes coloraos, y crecen en grupos d'hasta ocho. Pueden ser casi un centímetru de llargor. La fruta ye una baga negra o azul grasosa d'hasta 8 ó 9 milímetros de llargu, conteniendo delles granes.[1][2]
Esta planta crez en diversos tipos d'hábitat nel sureste de los Estaos Xuníos, incluyendo praderíes, pinares, marxes de banzaos, montes, breñales y comunidaes de sabal. Tamién crez n'árees cultivaes. Polo xeneral, precisa suelos secos y ácidos a plena lluz solar.[1]
Al igual que munches otres especies qu'habiten la carba del sureste de los Estaos Xuníos, esta planta afacer al fueu, pudiendo recuperase d'una quema pol surdimientu del so rizoma. Ésta ye tamién la manera en que forma grandes colonies d'individuos clonaos. La planta tamién se reproduz sexualmente por granes, les que son esvalixaes polos animales que comen los sos frutos.[1]
Esta especie ye probablemente un híbridu d'otros dos especies d'arándanos, Vaccinium tennelum y Vaccinium darrowii. Los exemplares d'esta especie pueden paecese a una o otra de los dos de les cualos hibrídase:, los "darrowoides" son más comunes na mariña de Florida, ente que los "tenneloides" pueden atopase nel sur de Xeorxa y el norte de Florida. Esta especie tamién s'hibrida con munchos otros arándanos.[1]
Los seminoles usaron esta planta como alimentu y pa una variedá de propósitos medicionales y ceremoniales, incluyendo'l tratamientu analxésicu contra la solazu y cefalea.[3]

Vaccinium myrsinites is a species of flowering plant in the heath family known by the common name shiny blueberry. It is native to the southeastern United States from Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina and Florida.[2] It may occur as far west as Louisiana.[3]
Vaccinium myrsinites is an erect, branching shrub that reaches one meter (40 inches) in maximum height. It is rhizomatous and can form very large colonies. Colonies measuring one kilometer (0.63 miles ) across and over 1,000 years old have been observed.[3] It is generally evergreen, but some forms are deciduous. The stems have angular green twigs. The leathery, green or grayish green, oval leaves are up to roughly one centimeter (0.4 inches) long and have smooth or vaguely toothed edges. The undersides are glandular. The flowers are urn-shaped or cylindrical, white to pink or red-tinged, and borne in clusters of up to 8. They may be nearly one centimeter long. The fruit is a black or waxy blue berry up to 8 or 9 millimeters in length containing several seeds.[1][3]
Vaccinium myrsinites grows in several habitat types in the southeastern U.S., including prairies, pine barrens, bog margins, flatwoods, Florida scrub, palmetto communities, and rosemary balds. It also grows in disturbed, clearcut, and fallow cultivated areas. Associated plants include scrub palmetto, netted pawpaw, scrubclover, dodder, Florida blazingstar, scrub mint, tree sparkleberry, saw palmetto, Lyonia, dwarf huckleberry, inkberry, bracken fern, several oaks, many species of pine. The best sites are dry, sandy stretches of acidic soils in full sunlight.[3]
In common with many southeastern scrub species, this plant is fire-adapted. It can recover from a fire by sprouting from its rhizome. This is also the way it forms vast colonies of cloned individuals. The plant also reproduces sexually by seed. The seeds are dispersed by animals, which relish the fruits.[3]
Vaccinium myrsinites is likely a hybrid of two other blueberry species, small cluster blueberry and Darrow's evergreen blueberry. Individuals may resemble one or the other parent species; the "darrowoid" phase is more common in coastal Florida, while the "tenneloid" phase can be found in southern Georgia and northern Florida. This species also hybridizes with many other blueberries.[3]
The Seminole used V. myrsinites for food and for a variety of ceremonial and medicinal purposes, including the treatment of "hog sickness", or unconsciousness.[4]

Vaccinium myrsinites es una planta con flores de la familia de las ericáceas conocida con el nombre común de arándano brillante. Es nativa del sureste de los Estados Unidos, creciendo silvestre entre Alabama y Carolina del Sur hasta la península de Florida, aunque puede encontrarse también en lugares más al oeste, como Louisiana.[1]
Este arbusto erecto y abundante de ramas puede alcanzar un metro de altura. Es rizomatoso y puede formar colonias muy grandes, habiéndose observado algunas cubriendo un kilómetro de terreno.[1] Es generalmente perenne, pero algunas son caducas. El tallo tiene ramitas verdes angulares. Las hojas, coriáceas, ovaladas y de color verde o verde grisáceo, tienen casi un centímetro de largo y tiene bordes suaves o vagamente dentados. Las partes inferiores son glandulares. Las flores son en forma de E o cilíndricas, de color blanco a rosa con tintes rojos, y crecen en grupos de hasta ocho. Pueden ser casi un centímetro de longitud. La fruta es una baya negra o azul grasosa de hasta 8 o 9 milímetros de largo, conteniendo varias semillas.[1][2]
Esta planta crece en diversos tipos de hábitat en el sureste de los Estados Unidos, incluyendo praderas, pinares, márgenes de pantanos, bosques, breñales y comunidades de sabal. También crece en áreas cultivadas. En general, necesita suelos secos y ácidos a plena luz solar.[1]
Al igual que muchas otras especies que habitan el matorral del sureste de los Estados Unidos, esta planta se adapta al fuego, pudiendo recuperarse de un incendio por el surgimiento de su rizoma. Ésta es también la manera en que forma grandes colonias de individuos clonados. La planta también se reproduce sexualmente por semillas, las que son dispersadas por los animales que comen sus frutos.[1]
Esta especie es probablemente un híbrido de otras dos especies de arándanos, Vaccinium tennelum y Vaccinium darrowii. Los ejemplares de esta especie pueden parecerse a una u otra de las dos de las cuales se hibrida:, los "darrowoides" son más comunes en la costa de Florida, mientras que los "tenneloides" se pueden encontrar en el sur de Georgia y el norte de Florida. Esta especie también se hibrida con muchos otros arándanos.[1]
Los seminolas usaron esta planta como alimento y para una variedad de propósitos medicionales y ceremoniales, incluyendo el tratamiento analgésico contra la insolación y cefalea.[3]
Vaccinium myrsinites fue descrita por Jean-Baptiste Lamarck y publicado en Encyclopédie Méthodique, Botanique 1(1): 73. 1783.[4]

Vaccinium myrsinites là một loài thuộc chi Việt quất, còn được biết đến với cái tên là việt quất vỏ bóng. Nó có nguồn gốc từ đông nam Hoa Kỳ, bao gồm các bang Alabama, Georgia, Nam Carolina, Florida, và Louisiana[1][2].
Vaccinium myrsinites là loài cây bụi mọc thẳng đứng, có chiều cao tối đa một mét, thường lan rộng để tạo thành các bụi nhỏ. Chúng là loài thường xanh, nhưng cũng có một số thuộc loài rụng lá. Lá hình bầu dục, màu xanh tươi hoặc xanh xám, dài khoảng 1 cm, có răng cưa hoặc mượt. Cành màu xanh, có góc cạnh. Hoa màu trắng hồng hoặc phớt đỏ, hình chuông, dài gần 1 cm. Quả mọng màu đen hoặc xanh thẫm, dài khoảng 8 - 9 mm, nhiều hạt[2][3].
V. myrsinites phát triển tốt ở một số môi trường sống bao gồm kiểu đồng cỏ Bắc Mỹ, rừng lá kim, bãi lầy,... Nó cũng thường mọc ở vùng đất trống hay những nơi bị bỏ hoang[2].
Tương tự nhiều loài cây bụi ở miền đông nam, loài này chịu được lửa. Nó có thể mọc lại sau những trận cháy rừng bằng cách đâm chồi từ gốc rễ dưới đất. Đây cũng là cách để V. myrsinites lan rộng ra khu vực xung quanh. V. myrsinites cũng nảy mầm từ hạt giống. Hạt được phân tán bởi động vật[2].
V. myrsinites có thể là loài lai tạo của hai loài việt quất khác, Vaccinium tenellum và Vaccinium darrowii; trong đó V. tenellum có thể được tìm thấy ở miền nam Georgia và miền bắc Florida và V. darrowii phổ biến ở vùng ven biển Florida. Loài này cũng lai với nhiều loài việt quất hoang dã khác[2].
