Abstract

Plumbaginaceae and Polygonaceae will be discussed in this study because they are sister groups, and due to little representation of the first. Both families are usually composed of herbs, with simple and alternate leaves, and achene as the fruit type. This checklist is based on Dubs publication, supplemented with the University of Mato Grosso do Sul (CGMS) Herbarium collection, and the databases of Species Link and Species of the Flora of Brazil list. Our results showed that there were no changes in the number of taxa in Plumbaginaceae for Brazil nor for the state, which means that only one genus with one subordinated species occurs . The number of Polygonaceae also did not change for Brazil (93 species in nine genera); however, for Mato Grosso do Sul, 24 species had previously been cited, and after this study, there are 27.
