Although the Leguminosae is the family with the greatest richness in the Cerrado, the family remains only partially documented in many parts of this biome including many parks and hilly areas. An example is the Parque Estadual da Serra de Caldas Novas (PESCAN), a conservation area located south of Goias, a region with many different habitats. Contributing to the documentation of the Leguminosae from the Cerrado, our study lists the representatives of the Caesalpinioideae occurring in PESCAN and shows one key to identify the species. To this end, we collected all fertile individuals found in this area for 12 months. We found 27 species in eight genera. This study represents the most complete list of species of Caesalpinioideae for PESCAN.
