| description | Background and Aims: In southeastern Mexico floristic studies, and in particular those dealing with Hylocereeae, are scarce. A taxonomic floristic study of the Cactaceae family in Tabasco is presented to know the richness and distribution of its species, a list of native and cultivated species was generated and a key to identify the species for Tabasco is presented.
Methods: The herbaria CSAT, MEXU, UJAT and XAL were consulted, as well as the pertinent taxonomic literature to have an approximation of the taxonomic diversity of Cactaceae in Tabasco. Field work was carried out in all types of vegetation in the state to obtain the necessary samples, which were deposited in the herbarium UJAT. With the samples collected and those reviewed in the herbaria, keys were made for the genera and species registered.
Key results: There are seven genera and 14 species of cacti distributed in Tabasco, from which six are new records for the state. The genus Selenicereus is the most diverse, while the evergreen tropical forest and Tacotalpa municipality presented the greatest richness of species.
Conclusions: The cacti in the state are poorly represented in comparison with Mexico’s north-central states, but there is a noticeable similarity in terms of species richness with the states of Campeche and Yucatán. |

Antecedentes y Objetivos: En el sureste de México los estudios florísticos, y en particular los que tratan sobre las Hylocereeae, son escasos. Se presenta un estudio florístico taxonómico de las Cactaceae en Tabasco para conocer la riqueza y distribución de sus especies, se generó un listado de especies nativas y cultivadas y se presenta una clave de identificación de las especies para Tabasco. Métodos: Se consultaron los herbarios CSAT, MEXU, UJAT y XAL, así como literatura taxonómica pertinente para tener una aproximación de la diversidad de Cactaceae en Tabasco. Se realizó trabajo de campo en todos los tipos de vegetación del estado para obtener las muestras necesarias; éstas se depositaron en el herbario UJAT. Con el material colectado y los ejemplares revisados en los herbarios, se realizaron claves de identificación para los géneros y especies registrados. Resultados clave: En Tabasco se registran siete géneros y 14 especies de cactáceas, seis de las cuales representan nuevos registros para el estado. El género Selenicereus es el más diverso, mientras que el bosque tropical perennifolio y el municipio Tacotalpa presentaron la mayor riqueza de especies. Conclusiones: Las cactáceas en Tabasco se encuentran pobremente representadas en comparación con los estados del centro-norte de México; sin embargo, con los estados de Campeche y Yucatán se observa una notoria similitud en cuanto a la riqueza de especies.
