| description | Field explorations and examination of herbarium specimens were utilized to document the diversity of Begonia species found within the state of Veracruz. Thirty species were found to be of native occurrence in the state. One species, Begonia involucrata is reported as new to Mexico and is disjunct from the nearest documented populations in Costa Rica. Begonia sericoneura is added as new to the state of Veracruz. Examinations of new material, live specimens and re-examination of previously collected material were utilized to revise descriptions of Begonia carolineifolia, B. involucrata, B. lyniceorum, B. sericoneura and B. sousae. Stomatal arrangements were determined for 28 of the 30 taxa. Solitary stomatal arrangements in section Gireoudia are shown to be more common than previous reports would indicate with 7 of the 18 species examined not exhibiting stomatal clusters. A key to the native taxa of the state of Veracruz is presented. Habitat, elevational and distributional patterns are also reported and discussed. |

Para documentar la diversidad de las especies de Begonia en el estado de Veracruz se realizaron exploraciones de campo y se revisaron especímenes de herbario. Se encontraron 30 especies nativas en el estado. Begonia involucrata se cita como nueva para México con la población disyunta más cercana en Costa Rica. Begonia sericoneura es nueva para el estado de Veracruz. La revisión de material adicional, especímenes vivos y de ejemplares previamente colectados se usó para revisar las descripciones de Begonia carolineifolia, B. involucrata, B. lyniceorum, B. sericoneura y B. sousae. Se determinó la disposición de los estomas de 28 de los 30 taxa encontrados. La ocurrencia de estomas solitarios en la sección Gireoudia es más común que lo indicado por registros previos, pues 7 de las 18 especies examinadas carecen de agregados estomatales. Se presenta una clave para los taxa nativos del estado de Veracruz. Se proporciona y discute también la información relativa al hábitat, así como a los patrones de altitud y de distribución.
