This research surveyed the vegetation existent in Macuco Town, São Domingos do Prata county, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, as part of a more detailed study of the microhydrobiological basins of this state. The area in study was previously covered with Latifoliated Tropical Forest. Recently the primitive vegetation is reduced to thickets scattered along the valleys of minor tributary streams of Macuco River or on hill tops intermixed by small areas cultivated with subsistence crops, pastures, brush, and fields. The botanical composition or remaining thickets, brushes and fields are represented by 372 species, envolved in 87 families and 22 genres.
