“…A pesar de esta notable diversidad de plantas vasculares 3,736 especies de las cuales 69 son endémicas de México y dos tienen distribución restringida al estado, aún hacen falta zonas por explorar ya que la mayor parte de los estudios se centran en el norte y sur del estado (Amador-Cruz, Benítez-Pardo, & Briseño-Dueñas, 2017). En el Inventario Estatal Forestal y de Suelos Sinaloa (SEMARNAT, 2015) se muestran las principales especies de aprovechamiento forestal, así como el estado de conservación de las ecorregiones más importantes, aunque no se tiene un listado de las especies nativas o del total de los recursos forestales para la región.…”

Studies on floristic diversity in Sinaloa, Mexico reflect about 3736 species of vascular plants, of which little is known about the native trees, their state of conservation and use, in addition to this, a high rate of deforestation has been registered in the state. Recognizing biodiversity, its ecological and cultural importance is of vital importance to propose sustainable use policies and reverse the environmental damage that its loss entails, therefore the objective of this work was to document the native tree species and their use in the agroforestry systems described in the literature and in a community. This study was based on bibliographic and field research; for the former, a list of native tree species was made, an in the latter, the knowledge about trees in a community was documented. Three sampling sites were selected in the municipal seat of Badiraguato Sinaloa, 60 interviews were applied and 51 family gardens were visited, the results of which were analyzed through cluster analysis.577 native trees were registered, four endemic to Sinaloa, the most diverse family and genera were the Fabaceae, Quercus, Pinus and Bursera. 260 species showed to have some form of use in the literature and in the study area, the milpa, the family garden, living fences and a silvopastoril systems were registered as agroforestry systems, the last one was named Pitayal, within the community 79 trees are recognized, 57 present in family gardens (4.15% of Sinaloa state native trees), with eleven forms of use among which the medicinal, a source of shade and food stand out. According to the cluster analysis, the orchards differ between those with introduced fruit trees and those with a higher frequency of native species which are located on the periphery and at the exit of the community. Home gardens are systems that allow the conservation of some species adapted to local conditions, both the species, the forms of management and their ecological implications must be studied in greater depth.

Sinaloa is among the states of Mexico harboring the highest deforestation rates. Reforestation programs have been put up in south Sinaloa with species chosen for their high seedling rates, structural importance or strong restoration value. However, species criteria such as level of endemism as well as rarity appear to be underestimated. Eight sampling sites were randomly selected and a botanical survey was carried out at least every month from 2015 to 2017. In order to rank species over conservation stakes, a Floristic Originality Index method was elaborated using species level of endemism, rarity and conservation status. The floristic inventory enabled the identification of a set of 250 species with the Fabaceae being the most represented family with 51 species. Using the Floristic Originality Index, a subset of 51 species was selected as priority for conservation along with 23 other species all displaying characteristics of “framework” species. Features of reproduction and types of ideal soil conditions for reforestation are presented for each species. The method developed to determine floristic originality has proven a set of most vulnerable and rare species to select “priority” and “framework” tree species able to restore forests structure and biodiversity as well as ecosystem functions. This evaluation is made from a conservation biology point of view and appears to be well adapted for studies at a local scale.
