Celastraceae genera in São Paulo (Brazil): an update 20 years after the “Phanerogamic Flora”
Abstract
After 20 years of the publication of the floristic treatment of Celastraceae in the project “The phanerogamic flora of São Paulo state”, two new records of genera have been found. It is presented herein the morphological description of Celastrus liebmannii Standl. and Schaefferia argentinensis Speg., as well as photos, comments and notes on distribution. With the new records, Celastraceae (sensu stricto) doubled from two to four genera present in São Paulo. An updated identification key for the genera occurring in the state is provided.
