This work presents the floristic survey of woody Caesalpinioideae taxa in the "Cerrado" and Semideciduous Forest vegetation, at the Estação Ambiental de Volta Grande. The area of study is located in the Triângulo Mineiro and belongs to the Companhia Energética de Minas Gerais. It covers 391 ha and represents 30 years of natural regeneration. Fourteen taxa were reported for the subfamily, distributed in 11 genera and four tribes. Caesalpinieae was the most representative tribe (Dimorphandra Schott, Diptychandra Tul., Peltophorum (Vogel) Benth., Pterogyne Tul. and Tachigali Aubl.), followed by Cassieae (Apuleia Mart., Chamaecrista Moench and Senna Mill.), Detarieae (Copaifera L. and Hymenaea L.) and Cercideae (Bauhinia L.). The most representative genus was Senna (4 spp.). Each one of the others was represented by one species. Identification key, descriptions and illustrations are presented for the sampled taxa, besides comments about their geographical distribution.
