Novos registros para a família Melastomataceae nos Estados do Paraná e Santa Catarina, Brasil

Abstract

-(New records to the Melastomataceae family to Paraná and Santa Catarina States, Brazil). The genus Henriettea DC. were recorded for the first time in Santa Catarina State, as well as four species of Melastomataceae: Henriettea glabra (Vell.) Penneys, Michelangeli, Judd & Almeda, Leandra tetraquetra (Cham.) Cogn., Miconia racemifera (DC.) Triana and Miconia paniculata (DC.) Naudin. Miconia paniculata and Salpinga margaritacea (Naudin) Triana are also recorded for the first time for Paraná State, and the latter is confirmed for Santa Catarina State, since its occurrence was previosly recorded based in an old and flowerless collection. All these species have their distribution limits extended towards the south, reaching the Paraná and Santa Catarina States. Descriptions, illustrations and taxonomic comments for all these new records are provided.

Melastomataceae das ilhas da Baía Babitonga, Santa Catarina, Brasil

“…A flora do estado de Santa Catarina é uma das mais bem conhecidas do país, graças principalmente à FIC -Flora Ilustrada Catarinense, iniciada por Raulino Reitz, em 1965 (Vibrans et al 2010). No entanto, Melastomataceae nunca foi contemplada por um fascículo próprio na FIC, sendo que o último trabalho abrangente publicado sobre ela no estado data de mais de 50 anos (Wurdack 1962), complementado apenas por um trabalho mais recente que aponta novas ocorrências (Meyer et al 2012). Além disso, estudos regionais dentro do estado são escassos (veja Goldenberg et al 2012).…”
