| Popis: | This work presents the floristic inventory of six areas of Tropical dry forest in Department of Atlántico and BolÃvar. The localities studied are priority areas for biodiversity conservation, maintenance of environmental services, and protection of archaeological values, landscape and / or tourism. There were a total of 314 species distributed in 232 genera and 73 families. Leguminosae is the family most represented in this study, with 61 species and 37 genera, followed Malvaceae (17/14) and Bignoniaceae (16/14). The habit better represented in species richness was trees (44%), followed by shrubs (21%) and herbs (16%). Between all plant species recorded, 20 have been evaluated under IUCNâs criterions, four of them, are included in the âendangeredâ category (EN): Aspidosperma polyneuron (carreto), Belencita nemorosa (calabacilla), Bulnesia arborea (guayacán) and Pachira quinata (ceiba roja). It is important to point out that 45 % of the plants have at least one known use in the region, which are linked with social, cultural and ecological process. |
