“…The Gentianaceae family is relatively well represented in the Cerrado, mainly in areas with more humid soil and in open fields (Souza et al 2018). In the state of Maranhão, Gentianaceae is still poorly sampled and many species are yet to be recorded, as was done by Ferreira et al (2018) that recorded the species Voyria caerulea Aubl. for the first time in São Raimundo das Mangabeiras, a municipality located close to PEM.…”

We report the second record of Symphyllophyton campos-portoi Gilg-Ben. in Brazil and the first records from the states of Maranhão and Tocantins, northeastern and northern of Brazil, respectively. The samples were collected in the Cerrado sensu stricto during the beginning of the dry season, within the boundaries of the Parque Estadual do Mirador, Maranhão, and on a farm in northeastern Tocantins. The finding contributes to the knowledge of the flora of these states and expands the known geographic distribution of S. campos-portoi. In this work, we present a description of the species, the first photographic record in this environment, and an identification key for the species of Symphyllophyton from Brazil.

“…The conservation of the remaining forest areas in Maranhão is of utmost importance since successive anthropic impacts could compromise the existing natural areas, leading to in the disappearance of species, or even taxa unknown to science (Koch and Araújo-Silva 2014;Rodrigues et al 2017). As observed for R. paludosa, the conservation of forest fragments and systematic floristic surveys has resulted in new records for the flora of Maranhão and the filling of some knowledge gaps (Koch and Araújo-Silva 2014;Ferreira et al 2017Ferreira et al , 2018Guarçoni et al 2018aGuarçoni et al , 2018bSilva Junior et al 2018…”

Expansion of the geographic distribution of Rapatea paludosa Aubl. (Rapateaceae) to the state of Maranhão, northeastern Brazil. The occurrence of R. paludosa is reported for the flora of Maranhão from the municipality of Cândido Mendes. This is the second species of the genus found in the state. The collected samples are also the second record of R. paludosa in the Northeastern Region of Brazil, adding information on its geographic distribution. Rapatea paludosa is described, illustrated, and its distribution mapped.

The Triuridaceae family is composed of saprophytic plants, chlorophylls, usually unbranched stems, leaves in alternate scales, bisexual or unisex racemous inflorescence, follicle or achene fruits. The species Lacandonia brasiliana A. Melo & M. Alves was described as a new species at the beginning of this decade through its first occurrence in the state of Paraíba, Brazil and South America. The objective was to report the first occurrence of the species Lacandonia brasiliana to Ceará State, the second occurrence for Brazil and South America, contributing to the knowledge of its distribution. The species was collected through expeditions in Cerrado fragments, in the municipality of Viçosa do Ceará-CE, during May/2019, which had fertile structures for later taxonomic identification. The collected material was herborized and later deposited in the Herbarium Prisco Bezerra (EAC) of the Federal University of Ceará. Identification was based on identification keys, specialized bibliography, expert consultation, comparison with herbarium and standard specimens. The species is presented with description, taxonomic and ecological comments, distribution data and images. It is a small, non-branched, mycro-heterotrophous species found in a preserved area of Seasonal Semideciduous Forest, being the first record for a Cerrado phytophysiognomy area. It's concluded that the new occurrence of Lacadonia brasiliana for the State of Ceará highlights the importance of floristic surveys in Cerrado forest remnants, and it is possible to observe the expansion of its territorial distribution, degree of conservation and richness.
