Flora of Paraíba, Brazil: Santalaceae R. Br.
Keywords:
northeastern Brazilian, eudicotiledons, hemiparasites, SantalalesAbstract
This study is about the taxonomic survey of Santalaceae R. Br. in Paraíba State, Brazil. The family is mainly characterized by having hemiparasite herbs with a complex taxonomy. Nine species belonging to two genera (Dendrophthora Eichler and Phoradendron Nutt.) were recognized in the studied area. Among their species, Dendrophthora warmingii (Eichler) Kuijt,
Phoradendron dipterum Eichler and Ph. quadrangulare (Kunth) Griseb. were recorded for
the first time in the flora of Paraíba. Despite the fact that Phoradendron quadrangulare had
never been recorded for the state before, it was the most frequent found during this study.
We present an identification key, taxonomic descriptions, relation of the examined material,
data distribution and illustrations for all species.
