Thanks all for the help - I do suspect that you're all correct in
believing it to be Microlicia; after examining some web photos of
pressed specimens, I couldn't find an exact match to the plant I
recall (from Serra do Cipó), but a few are close enough to be a
plausible relative, and the spelling error is simple enough that it
could have been bad handwriting.

Muito obrigado,
