VILLANUEVA, Boris; MELO, Omar y RINCON, Milton. State of knowledge and contributions to the vascular flora of dry forest of Tolima. Colomb. for. [online]. 2015, vol.18, n.1, pp.9-23. ISSN 0120-0739. https://doi.org/10.14483/udistrital.jour.colomb.for.2015.1.a01.
In Colombia, dry tropical forests represent one of the most degraded, fragmented and less studied ecosystems, constituting a priority for research element, therefore, in this paper, we defined the list of plants of dry tropical forests in the department of Tolima supported by TOLI and COL Herbariums collections. The best sampled municipalities and the places without collections were defined. We registered for the first time in Tolima and the second time in Colombia to Acidocroton gentryi (Euphorbiaceae) at El Neme Reserve in Coello; Anthodon decussatum (Celastraceae), Gustavia santanderiensis (Lecythidaceae), the genus Palmorchis (Orchidaceae) and Simira rubescens (Rubiaceae) in dry forest in Tolima. We conclude that the best-collected places are agricultural research centers generally with historical collections, which mainly are associated with species of herbaceous crops and grassland. Thus, forests not related with large monocultures on fertile terraces are still partially unexplored and could harbor important and unknown species to the area
