Abstract

This work proposes a protocol for elaborating the pollen florula of the FLORAS Botanical Garden, in the extreme south of Bahia, Brazil. Additionally, it describes the pollen morphology of species belonging to the genera Mucuna Adans. and Paubrasilia (Lam.) Gagnon, H.C.Lima & G.P.Lewis (Leguminosae) recorded for the area — M. urens (L.) Medik and P. echinata (Lam.) Gagnon, H.C.Lima & G.P.Lewis. The proposed approach involves acetolysis, measurement, description, and photodigitization of the pollen grains. The descriptions should include information about the main pollen characters, as well as measurements and studied material. For the studied taxa, descriptions and illustrations are provided.
