| description | In this paper, we document the role and potential of plant resources in the Popoloca community of Zapotitlán Salinas, Puebla, located in the most arid zone of the Tehuacán-Cuicatlán Valley. In total, 298 species belonging to 82 families were found. Ethnobotanical information is included for 288 species belonging to 219 genera and 79 botanical families, whose uses are placed in 19 categories. A total of 164 species are wild plants growing in different natural plant communities and in some of the transformed areas, while 124 can be found exclusively in the homegardens. The families with the highest number of useful plants were Poaceae (35 spp.), Cactaceae (24 spp.), and Asteraceae (23 spp.). Most of the useful plants are herbs (162 spp.), followed by shrubs (86 spp.) and trees (41 spp.). The paper includes information about spatial and seasonal availability of the useful species, as well as data concerning relative importance of the most important ones, such as those used as medicine, food, firewood and fodder. |

En este trabajo se documenta el papel y potencial de los recursos vegetales de Zapotitlán Salinas, Puebla, una comunidad de origen popoloca, ubicada en la porción más árida del Valle de Tehuacán-Cuicatlán. En total, se encontraron 298 especies divididas en 82 familias, y se presenta información etnobotánica de 288 especies pertenecientes a 219 géneros y 79 familias, cuyos usos se ubican en 19 categorías. De ellas, 164 prosperan en las distintas comunidades vegetales naturales de la zona y en algunas de las áreas transformadas, mientras que 124 se encuentran de manera exclusiva en los huertos. Las familias con mayor número de especies útiles fueron Poaceae (35 spp.), Cactaceae (24 spp.) y Asteraceae (23 spp.). En cuanto a las formas de vida, la mayor parte (162 spp.) son las herbáceas, seguida de los arbustos (86 spp.) y los árboles (41 spp.). El trabajo incluye información acerca de la disponibilidad espacial y temporal de las especies útiles, así como también de la importancia relativa de las de mayor interés para la población local, como son las combustibles, las medicinales, las alimenticias y las forrajeras.
