ResumoIt is presented a taxonomic study of the Melastomataceae family occurring in the forest remnants of Parque Estadual do Ibitipoca, which is located in the southeast of Minas Gerais State, between 800-1.784 m alt. In that area, there are 21 species belonging to four genera: Huberia and Meriania (tribe Merianieae) and Leandra and Miconia (tribe Miconieae). The genus Miconia is the most representative, with 12 species, followed by Leandra, with seven species, and Huberia and Meriania with one species each. A key to identify all the taxa, morphological descriptions and illustrations are presented, besides data from geographical distribution, phenology, and habitat of the species. In the area 15 taxa are restricted to forests and represent the first record to this Conservation Unit. Leandra lutea and L. multiplinervis are reported for the first time to Minas Gerais State.
