PYRENE MORPHOLOGY OF THREE SPECIES OF Byrsonima Rich. ex Kunth (Malpighiaceae)1

Abstract: -The species of the genus Byrsonima Rich. ex Kunth are of great medicinal and economic importance, but they are still poorly studied with respect to their propagules. This study describes, illustrates and comparse morphological aspects of the pyrenes of Byrsonima crassifolia (L.) Kunth, Byrsonima verbascifolia (L.) DC. and Byrsonima coccolobifolia Kunth occurring in areas of savannah of Boa Vista, Roraima. The pyrenes are globoid, obovoid to ovoid, with endocarp dark brown in color, with a corrugated and retic… Show more

“…B. crassifolia is identified with the common name mirixi or murici in some areas (De Souza et al, 2020;Oliveira et al, 2020), and B. verbascifolia with the common name orelha-de-burro (Oliveira et al, 2020), but other authors mention that murici is B. verbasciflora (Dos Reis Barbosa et al, 2015;Morzelle et al, 2015). The two species have similar fruit (Dos Reis Barbosa et al, 2015), but characteristic features allow differentiating between B. crassifolia and B. verbascifolia (Table 1).…”

“…Estudos com pirênios e sementes são bem difundidos entre o gênero Byrsonima, como observados nos estudos de Barbosa et al (2015), onde estudaram as características fenológicas dos pirênios e sementes de 3 espécies Byrsonima coccolobifolia, Byrsonima crassiflora e B. verbascifolia em uma área de Cerrado no estado de Roraima, Brasil. Os pesquisadores ainda propuseram em estudo, características de distinção entre as espécies avaliadas, onde em especial para B. verbascifolia os pirênios são mais leves e as sementes são mais longas e largas e apresentam maior espessura em relação as outras duas espécies avaliadas.…”
