Studies on factors influencing species distribution are necessary because of the accelerated
agricultural advancement over these species. Thus, this study aimed to assess Senador Modestino Gonçalves
floristic composition and possible cerrado floristic connections in Minas Gerais. Twenty-eight areas were assessed
for floristic similarity, including Senador Modestino Gonçalves. Sfrensen index was used in comparative analyses.
Floristic analysis identified 91 species, 65 genera and 38 families. Greater richness was represented by Leguminosae
(13), Malpighiaceae (11), Myrtaceae (7), Vochysiaceae (4), Sapindaceae (4), and Rubiaceae (4). A strong
floristic similarity was found in cerrado vegetation, with six groups being formed with superior similarities
for 0.5. However, the factors influencing this distribution could not be verified, but geographical proximity
and altitude seem to have a strong influence on some of these groups.
