Myrceugenia schulzei is endemic to Alejandro Selkirk Island in the Juan Fernández Islands, located in the Pacific Ocean west of the Chilean coast. Nothomyrcia fernandeziana, which is endemic to nearby Robinson Crusoe Island, was formerly placed in Myrceugenia but is now considered the sole species of genus Northomyrcia. Both are prominent trees in the lowland and lower montane forests of the islands.
