Leaf venation of Ocotea species (Lauraceae) from the Reserva Natural Vale, Linhares, Espírito Santo, Brazil

With the aim of recognizing and identifying both fertile and sterile specimens of Ocotea from the Reserva Natural Vale, Linhares, we analyzed the leaf venation pattern of 31 species, 13 of them being described and illustrated for the first time. A dichotomous identification key was built from a matr...

Sumario:With the aim of recognizing and identifying both fertile and sterile specimens of Ocotea from the Reserva Natural Vale, Linhares, we analyzed the leaf venation pattern of 31 species, 13 of them being described and illustrated for the first time. A dichotomous identification key was built from a matrix of 12 venation characters and 36 states, which allowed to distinguish the taxa.
