Abstract

The Caatinga biome presents several possibilities of use, especially regarding plants, showing unique vegetation marked by its heterogeneity, with a significant number of rare and/or endemic taxa. This article presents some aspects related to the potentialities of plant species in this biome, highlighting the riches that exist in the semiarid region of Brazil. It is thus necessary to consider the peculiarities of this region in order not to lose this potential due to unfamiliarity and inappropriate use.
