Abstract

ABSTRACT: Brazil is one of the countries with greater diversity of orchid species and with wide distribution in all states, where Alagoas stands out with great diversity of species. However, despite this great diversity reported, there are few studies in the agricultural region of orchids. In this sense, the work was to collect and identify the species of orchid found in the reserve in the municipality of Igaci, the state of the state, contributing to research in that area. The methodology followed by Cardoso and Israel, where populations of the Orchidaceae family were observed on the tree vegetation. The populations of host plants and the orchid studied were photographed and subsequently identified. The exscorts of the species collected was sent for identification by local flora, herbarium of the Institute of the Environment of Alagoas, and deposited in the Herbarium Mac. The same was identified as an Orchidaceae family, species Catasetum macrocarpum rich. ex Kunth, and was on adult urrulurí plants (Syaguscoronata). After studies, it was verified that this species had been identified in Alagoas in other different municipalities of the State, and in this municipality its first occurrence. Research on native orchids of Alagoas are relevant to the conservation and preservation of these species. Such information show the importance of this survey for future identification studies Preservation of native species, and especially from these to our region.
