Abstract: Restinga

Sandy coastal plain ( ) vegetation is composed of the communities that grow on Quaternary Neosols along the entire Brazilian coast. Ceará state has a coastal extension of 578 km and lies totally within the semi-arid zone of northeastern Brazil. Here we present a checklist of the phanerogamic species found along the coast of Ceará that was compiled from surveys and collections found at the EAC herbarium (, Ceará). A total of 391 species distributed among 208 genera and 41 families were identified. The families with the greatest numbers of species were Fabaceae senso latu (130 species), Cyperaceae (51), Poaceae (47), Rubiaceae (27), (19), Asteraceae (13), Bignoniaceae (11) and Malvaceae (12), representing over 78.77% of the species collected.

The data presented here indicate the importance of herbaceous species in the physiognomic composition of beach areas. However, it is quite possible that due to their immediate proximity to the ocean the restinga areas of Ceará state have been widely altered due to human utilization for leisure and tourism. As such, conservation efforts focusing on coastal plant communities must include quantitative studies and attempt to decelerate Figure 2. Tableanthropogenic 1. impacts. Ceará.
