Sommario/riassunto

The information regarding the geographical distribution of each species will be extremely useful for conservation purposes, and it is interesting to note the expressive number of endemic species in Brazil. This catalogue will certainly be used by students from different fields involving botany, ecology and others, and I am sure that its existence will stimulate future research on Brazilian plants and that its online version will keep it updated. The challenge now is to conserve the many different ecosystems in which these species occur, to maintain the country's botanical diversity.
