Abstract
The Serra do Rola-Moça State Park is located on the central southern portion of the Espinhaço Range, in a region denominated Quadrilátero Ferrífero (Iron Quadrangle). It comprises the municipalities of Belo Horizonte, Brumadinho, Ibirité and Nova Lima. The main vegetation types include the rocky grassland, semideciduous seasonal forest and savanna vegetation. This work aimed to study the floristics of the Bromeliaceae family in Serra do Rola-Moça State Park. Twenty-five species belonging to 11 genera were identified, and Dyckia is the most species-rich genus. Eduandrea selloana, Cryptanthus schwackeanus, Dyckia consimilis, D. densiflora, D. macedoi, D. simulans , D. schwackeana, D. trichostachya, Vriesea longistaminea and V. minarum are cited on the Minas Gerais Endangered Flora and Fauna Species List. Here we re-establish Dyckia oligantha as a species.
