Abstract

Based on new records, we expand the geographical distributions of 6 species of Salicaceae: Banara nitida Spruce ex Benth., Casearia marquetei Nepom. & M. Alves, C. souzae R. Marquete & Mansano, Macrothumia kuhlmannii (Sleumer) Alford, Xylosma glaberrima Sleumer, and X. pseudosalzmanii Sleumer, from the Atlantic Forest and Caatinga. Illustrations of the diagnostic characters of the species, maps of geographic distribution, and a key for identification of the genera of Salicaceae occurring in the Atlantic Forest and Caatinga are provided.
