description Background and Aims: The most recent checklist of the family Orchidaceae for the state of Tabasco recognized 116 species grouped in 60 genera. However, field work was necessary in those sparsely collected and unexplored areas. The goal of this work was to update the list of Orchidaceae of Tabasco from collections of plant material in diverse environments of this state.Methods: In the framework of the project “Systematics and Floristics of the Family Orchidaceae of Tabasco and status of the populations of three species listed in NOM-059-ECOL-2010”, orchids were collected between the years 2014 and 2015 in the entire state, focusing on little explored areas.Key results: 37 species and nine genera are added to the orchid flora of the state, which increases as such to 153 species, one variety and 69 genera. As a consequence, the Orchidaceae is now the third largest angiosperm family in Tabasco, only preceded by Fabaceae and Poaceae.Conclusions: Most of the species are distributed in the mountains of the state near the border with Chiapas and Guatemala, especially in the mountain chain of Huimanguillo. The populations of many of these species are in danger due to livestock and farming in the region, resulting in habitat loss.

Antecedentes y Objetivos: Para el estado de Tabasco se tenía el registro de 116 especies agrupadas en 60 géneros de la familia Orchidaceae, aunque se reconocía que era necesario incrementar el trabajo de campo en zonas poco colectadas e inexploradas. El objetivo de este trabajo es actualizar el listado de Orchidaceae de Tabasco a partir de colectas de material vegetal en diversos ambientes del territorio estatal.Métodos: Durante el desarrollo y como parte de las actividades del proyecto “Sistemática y florística de la familia Orchidaceae de Tabasco y estado de las poblaciones de tres especies enlistadas en la NOM-059-SEMARNAT-2010”, se realizaron recolectas entre los años 2014 y 2015 en todo el territorio estatal, haciendo mayor esfuerzo en las zonas poco exploradas.Resultados clave: Se adicionan 37 especies y nueve géneros a la orquideoflora del estado, incrementándose a 153 especies, una variedad y 69 géneros. Estos resultados colocan a las Orchidaceae como la tercera familia de angiospermas más numerosa de Tabasco, solo superada por Fabaceae y Poaceae.Conclusiones: La mayoría de las especies aquí registradas fueron descubiertas en la zona de la Sierra del estado, en los límites con Chiapas y Guatemala, principalmente en la zona montañosa de Huimanguillo. Las poblaciones de muchas de estas especies enfrentan riesgos debido a las actividades agrícolas y ganaderas realizadas en la zona, las cuales provocan la pérdida de su hábitat.
