Abstract

Melastomataceae has 22 genera and 150 species in the state of Paraná. Treatments with descriptions and identification keys have already been published for 17 genera. In this work, we presented a monograph for the last five genera, with nine species: Behuria insignis, Bertolonia acuminata, B. margaritacea, B. mosenii, B. paranaensis, Cambessedesia espora, C. hilariana, Huberia semiserrata and Mouriri chamissoana. We also present an identification key for all the genera of Melastomataceae occurring in Paraná.
