An updated checklist of the Mexican species of Dalbergia (Leguminosae) to aid in its conservation efforts

Abstract The Mexican populations of the genus Dalbergia are severely diminished as a result of overexploitation and illegal traffic, as well as deforestation and fragmentation of their natural habitats. Here we present an updated list of the 20 species of the genus that are distributed in Mexico, 5 of which are endemic, along with an identification key. For each taxon we provide information on synonymy, life form, maximum height, distribution, altitude, vegetation types, common names, and conservation status. This checklist will contribute to the regulation and management of these species and constitute the foundation of Dalbergia conservation efforts in Mexico.
