Open-access Flora of Espírito Santo: Terminaliinae subtribe (Combretaceae)

This study aimed to conduct a floristic survey of the subtribe Terminaliinae in the state of Espírito Santo. It was based on the morphological analysis of specimens deposited in herbaria BHCB, BM, CEPEC, CESJ, CRVD, EAC, ESA, HUFU, LTR, MBML, NY, RB, SP, UB and VIES, specialized bibliographies and images of type-collections. In the state of Espírito Santo, nine species were recorded in three genera: Buchenavia (B. hoehneana, B. kleinii, B. parvifolia, B. tetraphylla), Conocarpus (C. erectus) and Terminalia (T. argentea, T. glabrescens, T. januariensis and T. mameluco). Terminaliinae species occur preferentially in ombrophyllous dense forest and were recorded only in three conservation units of the state: APA Pedra do Elefante, Municipal Natural Park of São Lourenço and Vale do Rio Doce Natural Reserve.
