analysis of exsicates deposited in national and international herbaria were made and some
expeditions were done at the area of study. Seven genera and fourteen native species were found
in the researched area, as well as five genera and five species cultivated or subespontaneus.
Related to native plants, the genus Cayaponia Silva Manso presented a greater number os
species (5), followed by Melothria L. (3) and Psiguria Neck ex Arn. (2), being the genera
Gurania Cogn., Melothrianthus Mart. Crov.; Sicyos L. and Wilbrandia Silva Manso are
represented by only one specie for each one of those. Considering only the material deposited in
herbaria, five species were found cultivated or subespontaneous: Cucumis dipsaceus Ehrenb.,
