“…Merece destacar ainda uma série de estudos realizados por Costa-Lima especialmente com os representantes de Erythroxylum ocorrentes na floresta Atlântica. Esse autor propôs a descrição de novas espécies (Costa-Lima et al 2013a, 2014a, 2015a) e tem contribuído para uma melhor compreensão sobre a taxonomia e distribuição deste gênero (Costa-Lima et al 2013b, 2014b, 2015b. Destaca-se ainda que estes autores vêm trabalhando em colaboração já há algum tempo e elaboraram a lista dos representantes de Erythroxylum ocorrentes em território brasileiro, reconhecendo 127 espécies (Loiola & Costa-Lima 2015).…”

“…The classification of families, name of the species, abbreviations of authors, geographical distribution and of extreme biological importance and is considered a priority area for conservation of the flora of the Atlantic Forest domain (Martinelli 2007). The area has been the subject of many studies showing great diversity of birds (Roda 2002;Bencke et al 2006), frogs (Santos and Carnaval 2002), lycophytes and ferns , Bromeliaceae and Orchidaceae (Leme and Siqueira-Filho 2006;Siqueira-Filho and Felix 2006;Pessoa and Alves 2015b), and even new taxa to science (Carnaval and Peixoto 2004;Chautems et al 2005;Leme and SiqueiraFilho 2006;Amorim andAlves 2012a, 2015;Costa-Lima and Alves 2013;Giacomin et al 2013;Gregório et al 2014;Pessoa and Alves 2015a;Sobral 2013).…”

A list of angiosperms from Serra do Urubu, a montane forest area in the state of Pernambuco, is here provided. Based on 14 botanical expeditions and material deposited in herbaria, 832 taxa belonging to 442 genera and 118 families have been recorded in this area, with about 90% of the taxa identified to species level. The richest families are Orchidaceae (86 spp.), Fabaceae (51 spp.) and Rubiaceae (42 spp.). Miconia and Solanum (14 spp. each), and Psychotria (13 spp.) are the richest genera. About 15% of the recorded species are endemic to the Atlantic Forest, and another 10% are disjunct between this area and the Amazon Rainforest. The results indicate that the Serra do Urubu is one of the richest areas in terms of number of species of the Atlantic Forest in the Northeast, and corroborates the Pernambuco Endemism Center.

“…The Atlantic Forest north of Rio São Francisco [also known as Pernambuco Endemism Center (Prance 1982)] has been far less studied than the southern portion. Furthermore, due to the several new taxa which have been recently described (Alves-Araújo & Alves 2011, 2012a, 2012b, Amorim & Alves 2012, Melo & Alves 2012, Araújo & Alves 2013, Amorin et al 2013, Costa-Lima & Alves 2013, Lourenço et al 2013, Terra et al 2013, Costa-Lima et al 2014, Pessoa & Alves 2014, Pessoa et al 2014a, 2014b, the Pernambuco Endemism Center is pontentially much more diverse than it is currently known.…”

This study provides a survey of Orchidaceae species in an area of montane Atlantic Forest in the State of Pernambuco, Brazil. The study area comprises two conservation units (RPPN Frei Caneca and RPPN Pedra D’Anta), forming together the Serra do Urubu, which is located in the border of the Borborema plateau. Orchidaceae is represented in this study area by 81 species and 50 genera. Epidendrum L. (10 spp.) and Habenaria Willd. (four spp.) are the most representative genera. The subtribes Laeliinae (22 spp.) and Pleurothallidinae (14 spp.) together represent about half of the number of species. The high number of orchid species distinguishes Serra do Urubu as one of the richest areas for the family in the Atlantic Forest in northeastern Brazil. Our study also provides 18 new records of species to Pernambuco as well as reporting on about 40% of the species and 60% of the genera cited to the State. Campylocentrum pernambucense, Cattleya labiata, Cattleya granulosa, Phragmipedium sargentianum and Zygostates bradeiare cited as endangered, 14 species are endemic to the Atlantic Forest, and other seven have distributions restricted to northeastern Brazil. All these facts reinforce the importance of this area as well as management strategies for the conservation of Orchidaceae.
