LOS HELECHOS Y PLANTAS AFINES DEL BOSQUE MESÓFILO DE MONTAÑA DE BANDERILLA, VERACRUZ, MÉXICO

Abstract

Our inventory of ferns and similar plants
present in Banderilla, Veracruz, Mexico,
focused on cloud forest relicts. We report
130 species belonging to 24 families and 49
genera of such plants in Banderilla,
representing about 21% of the pteridophyte
flora of the state. This species richness is
remarkable considering the small size of the
municipality (22.21km2 or 0.03% of the area
of the state).
