“…The same was observed in other studies in Brazil (Parente & Rosa, 2001;Di Stasi et al, 2002;Gazzaneo et al, 2005). The use of these plant parts, as opposed to roots, is more interesting from the conservation point of view, since they minimize the impact generated by extrativism, reducing the likelihood of the whole plant dying.…”

“…The first two often appear as the most representative in number of species in other ethnobotanical works from Brazil (Parente & Rosa, 2001;Di Stasi et al, 2002;Pereira et al, 2004;Gazzaneo et al, 2005;Azevedo & Silva, 2006, Pilla et al, 2006, Pinto et al, 2006Maioli-Azevedo & Fonseca-Kruel, 2007). According to Di Stasi et al (2002), these are large, mostly cosmopolitan, families (about 22.750 and 6.700 species, respectively), known worldwide as medicinal, which would explain the large number of species listed by informants in ethnobotanical works. According to Bennett & Prance (2000), Lamiaceae, Asteraceae, Poaceae, Fabaceae and Malvaceae dominate the lists of exotic medicinal plants, being common in both temperate and tropical regions.…”

“…Este último dado também foi encontrado em outros estudos (Christo et al, 2006;Teixeira & Melo, 2006, Costa & Mayworm, 2011Alves & Povh, 2013), o que pode ser explicado por sua distribuição cosmopolita e grande importância terapêutica de suas espécies (Di Stasi et al, 2002;Pinto et al, 2006;Alves & Povh, 2013). De fato, Judd et al (2009) traz muitas espécies desta família como sendo ricas em óleos essenciais, atribuindo-as propriedades aromáticas e medicinais.…”
