“…According to Presta et al (2007) and Prance (1972a,b), C. icaco leaves are simple; entire; alternate; coriaceous; orbicular to ovate-elliptic; retuse, rounded or with a short blunt acumen at the apex, and subcuneate at base; 2.0-8.0 cm long and 1.2-6.0 cm broad; glabrous on both surfaces; and dark green ( Figure Prance (1972a) also pointed out that C. icaco leaves exhibit extreme variation both in size and in shape. Likewise, Souza & Morim (2008) mentioned the same in relation to E. rotundifolia leaves. Therefore, the most useful morphologic diagnostic characters to the authentication of the commercialized "abajurú" do not rely on the leaves quite similar shape ( Figures 1C, 4A), but rather on its phyllotaxy, texture, color, margin, marginal vein, midrib prominence, and the presence of translucent dots.…”

“…rotundifolia has a restricted distribution, occurring in the sandy coastal environments of Rio de Janeiro and Espírito Santo States (Souza & Morim, 2008). These ecosystems are also known as "restingas", and they are highly threatened by anthropic occupation (Tonhasca Júnior, 2005;Peixoto et al, 2002).…”

Eugenia rotundifolia Casar., Myrtaceae, occurs in the sandy coastal environments of Rio de Janeiro and Espírito Santo States. To the best of our knowledge, E. rotundifolia was not included in ethnobotanical and nor in pharmacological research, but its leaves are sold in a public market of Rio de Janeiro City as "abajurú", the common name for Chrysobalanus icaco L., Chrysobalanaceae. C. icaco, in contrast, has been studied and its medicinal effects reported. Since E. rotundifolia is often sold in the public market as "abajurú," this paper describes and compares the leaf anatomy and morphology of E. rotundifolia with C. icaco, previously described in the literature, in order to provide tools for the authentication of commercialized "abajurú." Phyllotaxy; texture; color; margin; midrib prominence; stomata type; type and shape of midrib and petiole vascular bundle; the presence of marginal vein, secretory cavities, which are seen as translucent dots, and overlying cells only in E. rotundifolia; and the presence of trichomes, periclinal divisions in adaxial face epidermis, hypodermis and vascular bundle extensions only in C. icaco were found to be the most distinguishable diagnostic characters.

Resumo Myrtaceae é representada no Brasil por 928 espécies e tem a Floresta Atlântica como um de seus centros de diversidade, apresentando 636 espécies, das quais 77,5% são endêmicas. Neste estudo foram tratadas as 23 espécies da família encontradas em fragmentos de Floresta Atlântica de Terras Baixas na Usina São José ao norte do estado de Pernambuco. Eugenia é o gênero mais representativo com dez espécies (E. candolleana, E. dichroma, E. excelsa, E. florida, E. hirta, E. aff. prasina, E. punicifolia, E. umbelliflora, E. umbrosa, E. uniflora), seguido de Myrcia com oito espécies (M. bergiana, M. guianensis, M. racemosa, M. spectabilis, M. splendens, M. sylvatica, M. tomentosa, M. verrucosa), Psidium com duas espécies (P. guajava e P. guineense) e Calyptranthes, Campomanesia, e Myrciaria com uma espécie cada (Calyptranthes dardanoi; Campomanesia dichotoma; M. ferruginea). São apresentados chave de identificação e comentários sobre as espécies, além de ilustrações dos caracteres diagnósticos.

“…Based on the information about the collection sites found on herbarium labels, species were assigned to one or more of the following habitat classes: forest interior, forest edges (interfaces between forests and open areas), rock outcrop vegetation, anthropogenic vegetation, and banana plantation. By consulting the literature (Ichaso 1980, Pennington et al 1981, Pennington 1990, Lorenzi 1998, Barroso et al 1999, Bovini et al 2001, Wanderley et al 2001, 2002, 2003, 2009, 2012, Mansano et al 2004, Passos & Oliveira 2004, Reis 2006, Souza & Morim 2008, Ferreira 2009, Gomes-Costa & Alves 2012, Silva-Luz et al 2012, Ferreira & Miotto 2013, Soares Neto et al 2014, specialists, and through examinations of material deposited at the RB Herbarium, the species of angiosperms were classified into four major groups according to the morphological criteria of Pijl (1982): 1) anemochoric, with diaspores adapted to wind dispersal; 2) zoochoric, with diaspores adapted to animal dispersal; 3) hydrochoric, with diaspores adapted to water dispersal; and 4) autochoric, with diaspores displaying no apparent specific adaptation to the above dispersal agents, including barochoric species (gravity dispersal) and those with explosive dispersal. By consulting the same aforementioned sources, we also determined which species are autochthonous to ombrophilous forests and/or pioneer formations (sensu IBGE 2012): beach ridge vegetation (restinga; Lacerda et al 1993) and rock outcrop vegetation (Meirelles et al 1999), of the Atlantic Forest complex in southeastern Brazil, and which species are associated with anthropically disturbed areas (ruderal species; sensu Moro et al 2012).…”

Studies of the vegetation on islands off the coast of southeastern Brazil are still very scarce, despite their importance for assessing, managing, and conserving insular biodiversity. We present here a list of the vascular flora of Queimada Grande Island (QGI; 24°29′10″ S, 46°40′30″ W, 57 ha, 33.2 km from the coast) in southeastern Brazil and describe its phytophysiognomies. The island is covered mainly by Atlantic Forest (Dense Ombrophilous Forest), as well as with rock outcrop and anthropogenic vegetation with herbaceous-shrub phytophysiognomies. QGI showed relatively low species richness (S = 125) when compared to other Brazilian coastal islands. Herbaceous (52) and climbing species (31) predominated on QGI. The richest families were Fabaceae (11 species), Poaceae (9), and Apocynaceae, Asteraceae and Orchidaceae (8 species each). Most species (S = 112) are autochthonous from different phytophysiognomies of the southeastern Brazilian Atlantic Forest complex. Many species associated with anthropically disturbed areas (S = 26) can be found on QGI, including the invasive grass Melinis minutiflora. There was a slight predominance of zoochory (S = 50). We did not identify any species endemic to QGI. One of its species (Cattleya intermedia, Orchidaceae) is vulnerable at both national and regional levels, and another (Barrosoa apiculata, Asteraceae) is presumably extinct on the mainland in São Paulo State. The vascular flora of QGI originated from the mainland Atlantic Forest complex, following the pattern of other coastal islands in southeastern Brazil. The flora and vegetation of QGI reflect the combination of insular conditions, the small size of the island, habitat restriction, steep topography, incipient soils, and the past use of the area with the introduction of several foreign species. We recommend permanent monitoring of the vegetation cover of QGI and its management, in order to ensure the conservation of the local native biota. Keywords: Atlantic Forest; biodiversity conservation; coastal islands; dispersal syndromes; invasive species; protected areas. Flora vascular e vegetação da Ilha Queimada Grande, São Paulo, sudeste do BrasilResumo: Estudos sobre a vegetação de ilhas costeiras no sudeste do Brasil ainda são muito escassos, apesar de sua importância para a avaliação, manejo e conservação da biodiversidade insular. Nós apresentamos aqui uma lista da flora vascular da Ilha Queimada Grande (IQG; 24°29′10″ S, 46°40′30″ W, 57 ha, 33,2 km da costa), sudeste do Brasil, e descrevemos suas fitofisionomias. A ilha é recoberta principalmente por Floresta Atlântica (Floresta Ombrófila Densa), bem como por vegetação sobre afloramento rochoso e vegetação antrópica com fisionomias herbáceo-arbustivas. A IQG apresentou riqueza relativamente baixa (S = 125) comparada a de outras ilhas costeiras do Brasil. Espécies herbáceas (52) e trepadeiras (31) predominaram na IQG.
