description Background and Aims: The tribe Vernonieae is distributed in the tropics and subtropics of both hemispheres and includes 21 subtribes, 118 genera and about 1050 species. The aims of this work are to provide an updated list of Mexican species of the tribe and contribute data concerning their distribution by state, altitude, vegetation types, growth habit and phenology.Methods: A bibliographic review of several taxonomic works and scientific collections of Mexico and some foreign ones was carried out.Key results: Seventy-tree species and two infraspecific taxa belonging to 19 genera are recognized, grouped in eight subtribes. Of these 19 genera, three are endemic and three are introduced, 47 species and two infraspecific taxa are endemic and three species are introduced. Chiapas, Oaxaca and Veracruz concentrate the largest number of genera and species, in addition to Guerrero. In the Pinus-Quercus forest can be encountered the largest diversity of Vernonieae species, which are distributed from sea level to 3000 m altitude.Conclusions: More than 60% species of Vernonieae presents in country are endemic and only 4.2% correspond to introduced taxa.

Antecedentes y Objetivos: La tribu Vernonieae se distribuye principalmente en trópicos y subtrópicos de ambos hemisferios e incluye 21 subtribus, 118 géneros y alrededor de 1050 especies. Los objetivos de este trabajo son proporcionar una lista actualizada de las especies mexicanas de la tribu y aportar datos referentes a su distribución por estado, altitud, tipos de vegetación, hábito de crecimiento y fenología.Métodos: Se realizó una revisión bibliográfica de diversos trabajos taxonómicos y colecciones científicas de México y algunas del extranjero.Resultados clave: Se reconocen 73 especies y dos taxones infraespecíficos pertencientes a 19 géneros que se agrupan en ocho subtribus. De los 19 géneros, tres son endémicos y tres introducidos; 47 especies y dos taxones infraespecíficos son endémicos y tres introducidos. Chiapas, Oaxaca y Veracruz concentran el mayor número de géneros y especies, además de Guerrero. En el bosque de Pinus-Quercus se encuentra la mayor diversidad de especies de Vernonieae, las cuales se distribuyen desde el nivel del mar hasta los 3000 m de altitud.Conclusiones: Más de 60% de las especies de Vernonieae presentes en el país son endémicas y únicamente 4.2% corresponde a taxones introducidos.
