The Payment for Environmental Services (PES) has become a territorial management and nature conservation tool increasingly applied in Brazilian context. Thus, this article aimed to analyze and systematize information about the evolution of PES scientific publications in Brazil. Therefore, a systematic literature review was carried out. The results indicated the predominance of research focused on case studies, with geographic limits following the administrative shape and watershed, and the most studied ecosystem service was related to water. Thematic analysis contributed to a visualization of the objectives which guide current research and possible practical applications of this instrument. Therefore, it is recommended to expand rigorous, systematic, and counterfactual evaluations, as well as studies in the Pantanal, Cerrado, and Caatinga biomes.
