| description | The present status of the floristic-ecological knowledge of wild Mexican Iridaceae is defined. 16 genera and 98 species of Iridaceae, all of them belonging in the 4 tribes of the subfamily Iridoideae are registered from the country. The tribe Tigridieae has its principal center of radiation in Mexico, where 11 of 18 genera and 52 of approximately 130 species grow; of those, 3 genera (30 %) and 38 species (71.7 %) are endemic. One naturalized species is also known. The best represented genera of Iridaceae in Mexico are Sisyrinchium (40 spp.) and Tigridia (29 spp.). Endemism in the family at species level reaches 54.6 %. Data and comments on habitat, distribution and phytogeography of Mexican Iridaceae are included. |

Se define el estado del conocimiento florístico-ecológico actual de los representantes silvestres de la familia Iridaceae para México. Hasta el momento se registran a nivel nacional 16 géneros que comprenden 98 especies, todas pertenecientes a la subfamilia Iridoideae, cuyas 4 tribus se encuentran en el país. La tribu Tigridieae tiene su principal centro de radiación en México en donde crecen 11 de sus 18 géneros y 52 de sus aproximadamente 130 especies; de estos taxa, 3 (30 %) y 38 (71.7 %) respectivamente son endémicos. Además se conoce una especie naturalizada. Los géneros con mayor diversificación en México son Sisyrinchium (40 spp.) y Tigridia (29 spp.) y la magnitud de endemismo de la familia a nivel específico alcanza 54.6 %. Se hacen comentarios relativos al hábitat y distribución de los representantes de la familia en México y se proporcionan algunos datos fitogeográficos.
