With 247 species occurring in Brazil, Microlicia is the largest genera of Microlicieae, reaching high levels of diversity in the campos rupestres of Bahia, Minas Gerais, and Goiás. The current inventory cataloged the occurrence of 48 species of Microlicia in the state of Goiás, 20 of them also occurring in the Distrito Federal. Thirty-two species are endemic to Goiás, and 16 are widely distributed in other Brazilian states. Fifteen species are preliminarily assigned as Critically Endangered (CR) and seven as Endangered (EN). The Chapada dos Veadeiros National Park has the highest diversity of Microlicia in Goiás with 21 species, of which 13 are endemic to this region. Here we provide an identification key for the species, morphological descriptions, taxonomic comments, flowering and fruiting data, habitat, distribution, and conservation status. Additionally, a new endemic species from the municipality of Teresina de Goiás, is described here.
