The objective of this work was to carry out the floristic inventory of the angiosperms of the Environmental Protection Area of the Elephant Stone. Shipments were carried out monthly from March / 2017 to August / 2018. A total of 654 species were identified in 369 genera and 101 families. The most representative families are Fabaceae (56 spp.), Euphorbiaceae (36 spp.), Bromeliaceae (27 spp.), Orchidaceae (26 spp.), Malpighiaceae (24 spp.), Malvaceae (22 spp.), Asteraceae 21 spp.), Cyperaceae (21 spp.), Araceae Juss. (20 spp.), Rubiaceae (20 spp.), Apocynaceae (19 spp.), Bignoniaceae (19 spp.) and Myrtaceae (19 spp.). The richest genera were Dioscorea (Dioscoreaceae) (13 spp.), Anthurium (Araceae) (11 spp.), Peperomia (Piperaceae), Cyperus (Cyperaceae) and Byrsonima (Malpighiaceae) (eight spp.); Piper (Piperaceae), Solanum (Solanaceae) and Erythroxylum (Erythroxylaceae) (seven spp.) and Aechmea (Bromeliaceae), Begonia (Begoniaceae), Chamaecrista (Fabaceae), Eugenia (Myrtaceae) and Ipomoea (Convolvulaceae) (six spp.). Among the total of species verified, 80 new records for the flora of Espírito Santo, as well as the occurrence of 15 species endemic to the state. Only 129 of the total species have threat assessments according to IUCN. The calculation of floristic similarity among seasonal forest formations in Brazil was also carried out. A total of 1217 species belonging to 400 genera and 94 families from different areas were compared. The results showed a similarity between the areas, this value of similarity, indicates that such forest formations are highly heterogeneous, lacking more studies and preservation policies. The results are presented separately in two chapters: 1st Floristic Survey of the APA Pedra do Elefante Forest, Nova Venécia, Espírito Santo, Brazil; with a checklist of angiosperms occurring in the APA, as well as the degree of threat, endemisms for Brazil and for Espírito Santo, life forms, substrates, and new records. And 2nd Floristic Similarity between different fragments of seasonal forests in Brazil; which deals with the ecological treatment relating the similarity between the semideciduous seasonal forest formations of the south - east and south of Bahia.
