Abstract
The campos rupestres form a mosaic of rocky savannas concentrated mainly along the Espinhaço chain, on the
Brazilian shield. Though the Serra de São José lies over 100 km to the south of the Espinhaço chain, the campo
rupestre flora of this small range harbors several endemic plant taxa. The provided checklist is the result of two decades
of floristic research complemented with data from herbaria and literature. The flora is compared with the results of
several other pertinent surveys. A total of 1,144 vascular plant species, representing 50.3 species/km2, were documented
to date in the São José range, representing a species-richness per unit area over five times greater than other known
campo rupestre floras. The most species-rich families were the Asteraceae (126 species), Orchidaceae (106),
Melastomataceae (63), Leguminosae (60), Cyperaceae (45), Poaceae (41), Rubiaceae (37), Myrtaceae (28),
Bromeliaceae (27), Eriocaulaceae (23), Lamiaceae (23), and Malpighiaceae (22).

Introduction
The Serra de São José (21°3-7' S, 44°6-13' W) is
a small quartzite mountain range just northeast of
the town of Tiradentes and west of Prados, state of
Minas Gerais, Brazil (Figure 1). The local climate
is characterized by rainy summer and arid winter,
as exemplified the climate diagram from São João
del Rey (6 km from the range, Figure 2). The
range is recognized as an area of extreme
importance for nature conservation within the
state of Minas Gerais (PROBIO 2004). Apart
from their relatively large species richness, the
campo rupestre and forest biotas of the Serra de
São José harbor many endemic and endangered
species, and this fact alone justifies the range as a
priority area for conservation at both the state and

Historically the Serra de São José range lay in the
path of several field naturalists who travelled into Carl Friedrich Philippe von Martius collected in
the hinterland and collected botanical material on the Serra de São José during January of 1818, and

At the end of the 19th Century, Astolpho Álvaro
da Silveira, a very active field naturalist, visited
and studied many mountain ranges of Minas
Gerais. He wrote several books about various
natural aspects of these mountains (for instance
Silveira 1920; 1921; 1928; 1931), but all his
writings are currently rare and very hard to
find. Silveira was very interested in the
Eriocaulaceae, a family which has its center of
diversity in the campos rupestres – the main type
of summit vegetation of the Serra de São José.
Silveira´s official collection, including material
from the Serra de São José (located numbers
range from 149–1,257), was acquired by the

scholarships (1988–1996) from the Brazilian Council of Research (CNPq) were also essential to these
accomplishments. A notable Brazilian collaborator was Wanderbilt Duarte de Barros, who became a close friend while
he presided the Brazilian Foundation for the Conservation of Nature (FBCN), and who, as Director of the Rio Botanical
Garden, helped the present Flora effort immensely by inviting the first author to work as a visiting researcher after
having concluded his PhD studies in Prague, Czech Republic. Thanks to his support it was possible to compare many
collected species in the RB herbarium.
