| description | A list of 749 genera of flowering plants containing at least one species that grows exclusively or preferentially in the tropical deciduous forest (tdf) of Mexico is provided. The Leguminosae is the best represented family, followed by Compositae and Gramineae, Malvaceae, Orchidaceae and Apocynaceae. The floristic composition of Mexican tdf often differs greatly from one locality to another. According to the literature, at least 96 tree genera are reported with species that are dominant or quantitatively important in inventories made in different parts of the country. The geographical affinities of the flora of tdf indicate strong relationships to those of Central and South America. 7.9% of the genera are endemic to the political limits of Mexico and this number rises to 19.2% if Central America is also included as reference. The existence of tdf of Mexico dates at least from Early Cenozoic and its present flora, although furnished by exchanges from different sources, is primarily the result of long and intense evolutionary processes within itself. |

Se integra una enumeración de 749 géneros de fanerógamas que contienen al menos una especie que habita exclusiva o preferentemente en el bosque tropical caducifolio (btc) de México. Tal lista indica que la familia Leguminosae es la mejor representada en este tipo de vegetación; le siguen en importancia las Compositae y Gramineae y en seguida Malvaceae, Orchidaceae y Apocynaceae. La composición florística del btc de nuestro país con frecuencia discrepa mucho de una localidad a otra. De acuerdo con lo encontrado en la literatura, al menos 96 géneros de árboles se registran con especies dominantes o cuantitativamente importantes en los censos realizados en diferentes partes del país. Las afinidades geográficas de la flora del btc indican estrechos vínculos con las de Centro y Sudamérica. De acuerdo con este inventario, 7.9% de los géneros son endémicos a los límites políticos de la República y esta cifra sube a 19.2% si se toma como referencia también a Centroamérica. La existencia del btc en México data al menos desde Cenozoico Temprano y su flora actual, sin menoscabo de haberse nutrido mediante intercambios de fuentes diversas, es primordialmente el resultado de largos e intensos procesos evolutivos realizados en su propio seno.
