Abstract

Orchidaceae is still poorly studied in southwestern Bahia and most of the existing studies were carried out in the municipalities of Vitória da Conquista and Boa Nova. Thus, the present study aimed to carry out a floristic survey of Orchidaceae in a forest fragment of Montane Seasonal Deciduous Forest, located in Salitre, in the rural area of the municipality of Poções, Bahia, Brazil. The survey was carried out through monthly field trips carried out between September 2020 and May 2022. We found 20 species of orchid distributed in 15 genera, including two new occurrences for Northeastern Brazil: Maxillaria chrysantha Barb.Rodr. e Zygostates juliae Campacci & C.R.M.Silva, one new occurrence for the state of Bahia: Campylocentrum fasciola (Lindl.) Cogn. and four for southwestern Bahia: Cattleya cernua (Lindl.) Van den Berg, Masdevallia infracta Lindl., and Ornithocephalus myrticola Lindl., thus contributing towards the knowledge of the local flora, the state of Bahia, and Northeastern Brazil.
