“…At present, ca 7150 plant species (including mosses, ferns, their allies, and seed plants) are recognized as naturally occurring there (Brazil Flora Group 2015, Dutra et al 2015, Costa and Peralta 2015, Prado et al 2015, Flora do Brasil 2017. This number is still far from final, since the flora of this state has been poorly studied, and in the last several years many new species have been described (e.g., Labiak and Matos 2009, Goldenberg and Kollmann 2016, Ribeiro et al 2016.…”

We present a checklist of ferns and lycophytes from Parque Estadual Mata das Flores, a state park located in Castelo, Espírito Santo, Brazil. The park has an area of 800 ha, and its main vegetation is composed of dry forest (at 150-500 m elev.), and a small portion of wet forest (500-700 m), within the Brazilian Atlantic Rainforest biome. We found 83 taxa, including 75 species, 3 varieties, 4 putative hybrids, and 1 cultivar. Among these, 17 are newly recorded from the Espírito Santo. Twenty-five taxa are endemic to the Atlantic Forest biome, and 5 are endemic to southeastern Brazil, and 2 are narrow endemics to the states of Rio de Janeiro and Espírito Santo. Anemia blechnoides is the only vulnerable species found, according to the national red list. We found 4 naturalized species. Among the hybrids, 3 are reported for the first time in literature (Blechnum asplenioides × B. glandulosum, Campyloneurum decurrens × C. repens, and Doryopteris collina × D. lorentzii) and 1 for the first time in Brazil (B. glandulosum × B. polypodioides).

“…Following the classification of Smith et al (2008), a list of 254 species of American Cyatheales was compiled (Table 1S, supporting information), based on information from online databases [i.e., Missouri Botanical Garden's (Tropicos, www.tropicos.org), the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF, data.gbif.org), and the Red Mundial de Información sobre Biodiversidad (REMIB, www.conabio.gob.mx/remib)], inspection of herbarium specimens from the following collections: MEXU, FCME, and ENCB, and reviews of published monographic, revisionary, and floristic studies (Alcántara and LunaVega 2001;Barrington 1978;Colli et al 2004;Conant 1976Conant , 1983Figueiredo and Salino 2005;Fontana et al 2007;Gomes et al 2006;Kelly et al 1994;Labiak and Matos 2009;Large and Braggins 2004;Lehnert 2003Lehnert , 2005Lehnert , 2006aLehnert , b, 2008Lehnert et al 2001;Lellinger 1989;León 2006;Lobin 2002;Marticorena 1995;Mickel and Smith 2004;Monterrosa and Monro 2008;Moran 1990;Moran et al 2003Moran et al , 2008Mori 1992;Murillo and Murillo 2003;Øllgard 2000;Pietrobom and Barros 2006;Prado and Labiak 2001;Proctor 1977Proctor , 1984Proctor , 1985Proctor , 1989Rojas-Alvarado 2001, 2007Rzedowski 1996;…”

Species richness, endemism, and conservation of American tree ferns (Cyatheales)

2010

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Analyses of richness and endemism of Cyatheales (tree ferns) in tropical America were performed and evidence of a diversity gradient is presented. For this, the occurrence ranges of 239 species were plotted into a 5°9 5°grid-cell map and then analyzed using species richness and endemism indices. Here we show that species richness and endemism are not distributed randomly over the landscape, but do aggregate into defined regions of high diversity in tropical America: the northern Andes, lower Central America, upper Central America and Mexico, the Guyana Highlands, southeastern Brazil, and the Antilles. These distributional patterns are congruent with the geographical distribution of cloud forest, which in turn is determined by topography, high humidity, and persistent cloud immersion. The mountain regions of tropical America, especially the cloud forests, harbour most of the species of American Cyatheales and have high levels of habitat loss and climatic fragility. Conservation policies for Cyatheales are centred on the local use and trade of many tree fern species, but none such policies focus on cloud forest habitat loss. This makes tree ferns a critically endangered group of plants. In the face of the current environmental crisis and global climate change, the presence of Cyatheales in these regions sounds the alarm on their conservation priorities.Electronic supplementary material The online version of this article (

“…Mais recentemente, trabalhos de florística de samambaias e licófitas continuam a apresentar dados relevantes para o estado (e.g., Viégas-Aquije & Flausino 2007;Andrade et al 2016;Sylvestre et al 2016;Schwartsburd et al 2017;Pena et al 2017a). Mesmo com as importantes contribuições citadas acima, acredita-se que o cenário atual para samambaias e licófitas no ES ainda esteja subestimado, visto os inúmeros trabalhos que vêm descrevendo espécies novas para o Estado (e.g., Salino et al 2008;Labiak & Matos 2009;Viveiros & Salino 2015;Mickel 2016;Moura et al 2016;Salino et al 2016;Schwartsburd et al 2016).…”

Resumo Os resultados aqui apresentados fazem parte de um trabalho maior que consiste na Flora Vascular da Pedra do Elefante, Nova Venécia, Espírito Santo. As expedições a campo foram realizadas de março de 2010 a julho de 2016, em um total de 23 visitas ao local. As amostras foram incorporadas principalmente nos herbários CEPEC, MBML, RB, UPCB, VIC e VIES. Sessenta e três espécies, uma subespécie, três variedades e dois híbridos de samambaias e licófitas foram registradas, distribuídas em 32 gêneros e 15 famílias. As famílias mais representativas foram Pteridaceae (14 spp.), Polypodiaceae (11 spp.), Anemiaceae (9 spp.) e Selaginellaceae (5 spp.). Os gêneros mais representativos foram Anemia (9 spp), Selaginella (5 spp.), Adiantum e Pteris (4 spp. cada). Dentre estas, três espécies são novas ocorrências para o Espírito Santo e oito táxons apresentam estado de conservação. Chaves de identificações em nível genérico e específico, comentários, e distribuição geográfica para todos os táxons são apresentados. Inventários florísticos no Espírito Santo são importantes, principalmente em áreas que possuem afloramentos rochosos, pois o baixo esforço de amostragem e a alta pressão antrópica, causam impactos negativos na preservação da vegetação nativa.
