Abstract
FINE, Paul and DALY, Douglas C.. Burseraceae endemic of Peru . Rev. peru biol. [online]. 2006, vol.13, n.2, pp.191-191. ISSN 1727-9933.
The Burseraceae are represented in Peru by six genera and 50 species (Brako & Zarucchi, 1993; Ulloa Ulloa et al., 2004), all of them trees. Here we recognize two endemic taxa in two genera. These taxa are found in the Very Humid Lowland Amazonian Forests and Very Humid Premontane Forest regions, between 150 and 1300 m elevation. Neither species has been registered within Peru's protected areas system.
Keywords : Burseraceae; Peru; endemism; endemic plants.
