Contribuição ao Conhecimento Taxonômico da Família Annonaceae na Estação Científica Ferreira Penna: Gêneros Bocageopsis, Cymbopetalum e Fusaea

Abstract

The Scientific Station Ferreira Penna has an area of 33,100 ha, located in the National Forest of Caxiuanã (10 42' 30" 5 and 510 31' 45" W), municipality of Melgaço (PA) and covers several ecosystems such as primary and secondary forests of terra firme, várzea, igapó and savannoid vegetation, being considered one of the richest areas in biodiversity and timber potential. Among the families with the largest number of species in the ECFP, the Annonaceae with 12 genera and 40 species stand out. The present work is a contribution to the taxonomic knowledge of the Annonaceae family and to provide data for the elaboration of the flora of the ECFPn. The studies were carried out on specimens from the Herbarium MG collection of the Emilio Goeldi Museum of Pará and included the species Bocageopsis multiflora (Mart.) R.E.Fr, Cymbopetalum brasiliense (Vell. Cone.) Benth., Fusaea longifolia (Aubl.) Saff. and Fusaea decurrens R.E.Fr., being analyzed habit, types of indumentum, coloration, shape, number and dimensions of vegetative and reproductive structures.
