ABSTRACT
Jacquemontia is the fourth largest genus of Convolvulaceae in relation to species richness. This genus includes approximately 130 species, mostly concentrated in tropical America, of which 67 occur in Brazil. The floristic survey of Jacquemontia for the Brazilian States of Goiás and Tocantins revealed the occurrence of 17 species, of which 15 occur in Goiás and seven in Tocantins. We provide an identification key, data on geographical distribution, habitat, and images for all species of Jacquemontia occurring in the area.
