With just the leaves alone it is hard to tell.

Some collection data, maybe some twig and berry shots might also be useful.

The paper you are after which will include plant figures and genotypical description is

Three New Species of Erythroxylum (Erythroxylaceae) from Venezuela

Timothy Plowman

Brittonia, Vol. 34, No. 4 (Oct. - Dec., 1982), pp. 442-457
