BRUCE K. HOLST Missouri Botanical Garden, P.O. Box 299, St. Louis, Missouri 63166-0299, USA

ABSTRACf. A checklist of the 24 genera and 364 native species ofBromeliaceae known from is presented, including their occurrence by state and indications of which are endemic to the country. A comparison of the number of genera and species known from Mesoamerica (southern to ), , Venezuela, the Guianas (, , ), , and is presented, as well as a summary of the number of species and endemic species in each Venezuelan state.

RESUMEN. Se presenta un listado de los 24 generos y 364 especies nativas de Bromeliaceae que se conocen de Venezuela, junto con sus distribuciones por estado y una indicaci6n cuales son endemicas a Venezuela. Se presenta tambien una comparaci6n del numero de los generos y especies de Mesoamerica (sur de Mexico a Panama), Colombia, Venezuela, las Guayanas (Guyana, Suriname, Guyana Francesa), Ecuador, y Peru, y un resumen del numero de especies y numero de especies endemicas de cada estado de Venezuela.
