Synopsis of Myrcia (Myrtaceae) in the State of Pernambuco, Brazil

View through CrossRef
Abstract: The present study is a synopsis of the species of Myrcia occurring in Pernambuco, Brazil. We recorded 30 species distributed in eight sections: M. sect. Aguava (4), Myrcia sect. Aulomyrcia (9), M. sect. Calyptranthes (3), M. sect. Gomidesia (5), M. sect. Myrcia (4), M. sect. Reticulosae (2), M. sect. Sympodiomyrcia (2) and M. sect. Tomentosae (1), beyond Myrcia sp. which has not been included in any section yet. Myrcia laricina (O. Berg) Burret ex Luetzelb. and M. hirtiflora DC. are new records for the State. Myrcia arenaria had the first record for humid forest in the municipality of Brejo da Madre de Deus. This study provides an identification key, comments on morphological distinction, geographic distribution and habitat for all taxa. In addition, distribution maps, photographic plates with the distinctive characteristics of the species are included and the updating names of Calyptranthes, Gomidesia and Marlierea under Myrcia.
