Resumo: Myracrodruon urundeuva Allemão (Anacardiaceae), Sideroxylon obtusifolium (Roem. & Schult.) T. D. Penn. (Sapotaceae) and Zizyphus joazeiro Mart. (Rhamnaceae) are native species of the caatinga, widely used as medicinal, specially parts from the stem bark of adult individuals. In general, it is collected hazardously and can let the plant to die and, consequently, reduce the biodiversity. This study aimed to characterize the anatomical, histochemical and phytochemical profile of these species, to the botanical certification, to identify and to localize the accumulation of the metabolites, comparing young stem and mature leaves in young and adult individuals. Usual methods in plant anatomy, phytochemical tests to detect the metabolites classes and specific phytochemical tests to phenolic compounds, iridoids and starch were made. M. urundeuva shows amphystomatic leaves with anomocytic stomata; unicellular simple and glandular trichomes, more abundant over the veins; idioblasts with prismatic crystals in the spongy parenchyma; secretory ducts associated with the phloem in the main vein of the leaf vein, in the petiole and in the stem. S. obtusifolium shows hypostomatic leaves with actinocytic stomata; tector trichomes in the leaf lamina and in the petiole; unistratified hypodermis, with idioblasts with druses; sclereids in the mesophyll; secretory ducts in the medulla of the petiole and the stem. Z. joazeiro shows anomocytic and tetracytic stomata, unistratified hypodermis, with idioblasts with druses, braciform cells in the spongy parenchyma, prismatic crystals in the main vein of the leaf, cap of gelatinous fibers in the stem. Z. joazeiro shows cumarin molecules and cinamic derivates in the stem, only in adult individuals. The other species show similar characteristics related to the metabolites in the stem and in the leaves, in young and adult individuals with different stadium of development.
