| Descrizione: | The state of Mato Grosso, in Central-West Brazil, is located within the Amazon Forest, Cerrado and Pantanal phytogeographical domains, harboring diverse habitats for species of Epidendrum. The goal of the present study was to develop a taxonomic treatment, including diagnoses, identification key, photographs and distribution maps for the species of Epidendrum in the state. We confirmed the presence of 20 species. Additionally, after analyzing the type specimen of E. callobotrys, a species described from Mato Grosso and known from only one specimen, we concluded it does not differ from E. coronatum; thus, we propose its synonymization. Most species are distributed in the Amazon (17 spp.) and Cerrado (13 spp.) domains. On the other hand, the Pantanal only had five species, recorded for the first time in the present study, which is among the first studies on Orchidaceae in this domain. |
