Abstract

The Annonaceae from Natural Reserve Vale located in Linhares, Espírito Santo, include 11 genera and 28 species. Key to genera and species, illustrations to diagnostics features and photographic plates are presented. Annona is the most diverse genus, with five species, followed by Guatteria, with four. Duguetia, Honschuchia, Oxandra and Xylopia are represented by three species each, and Unonopsis by two. Anaxagorea, Cymbopetalum, Ephedranthus and Pseudoxandra are represented by only one species each. The identity of Guatteria species is controversial. Morphological analysis allowed to include specimens attributed to G. tomentosa in G. villosissima. Male flowers of Pseudoxandra spiritus-sancti are described for the first time, constituting the first report of androdioicy in Pseudoxandra (AU)
