Abstract

We describe the cataloging of the palynological slides at the palynotheca of the Federal University of Western Pará. Currently, the pollen slides collection has 863 slides. Works about palynology have been increasing in this university since 2010, therefore, there are over 1,000 slides to be incorporated into the collection. This biological collection has subsidized research activities and teaching palynology, enriching the knowledge about the regional pollen diversity, enabling the training of undergraduate and graduate students who work in the area. All palynological information is being systematized and will be available soon at an open access website, with the purpose of promoting the scientific dissemination of palynology. This is an important advance and contributes to developing the palynology in the Amazon region.
