description Background and aims: Interest in the Jesuit bibliography is currently growing as a source of ethnobiological information. One of the first steps to make available the valuable information contained in them is to taxonomically identify the plants involved and delimit the presence of plant complexes. The objective of the present work is to identify the plants of the “Observaciones fitológicas sobre algunas plantas introducidas en Roma” by Gaspar Juárez and Filippo Gilii (18th century), discuss the identifications presented by the authors in relation to descriptions, distributions and local names presented, and compare with those of other Jesuit studies.  M&M: The framework of historical ethnobotany was employed to analyze the mentioned source. The plants were identified using various scientific publications (flora catalogs, ethnobotanical works, and systematics, among others). Results: 30 ethnospecies were surveyed, corresponding to 44 botanical species and 5 genera that comprise various species (i.e., Psidium), included in 22 botanical families, being Fabacceae, Cucurbitaceae, Solanaceae and Asteraceae, the most represented. There have been recorded and identified other plants associated to those, that are considered a hidden diversity in the speech, as well as several mistaken associations in the constitution of botanical complex.  Conclusions: Identifications provided by the authors are consistent in most cases. However, in other cases the ethnospecies presented correspond to plant complexes made up of various species and even some of them do not correspond to the species described and identified.

Introducción y objetivos: Actualmente está creciendo el interés en la bibliografía jesuítica como fuente de información etnobiológica. Uno de los primeros pasos para poner a disposición la valiosa información contenida en las mismas es identificar taxonómicamente las plantas involucradas y delimitar la presencia de complejos vegetales. El objetivo del presente trabajo es identificar las plantas de las “Observaciones fitológicas sobre algunas plantas introducidas en Roma” de Gaspar Juárez y Filippo Gilii (siglo XVIII), discutir las identificaciones presentadas por los autores en relación a las descripciones, distribuciones y nombres locales presentados, y comparar con aquellas de otros estudios jesuíticos. M&M: Se empleó el marco de la etnobotánica histórica para el análisis de la obra mencionada. Las plantas fueron identificadas empleando diversas publicaciones científicas (catálogos de flora, trabajos etnobotánicos, revisiones sistemáticas, entre otros). Resultados: Se relevaron 30 etnoespecies y que se corresponden con 44 especies botánicas y cinco géneros que comprenden varias especies (por ejemplo, Psidium), incluidos en 22 familias botánicas, siendo Fabaceae, Cucurbitaceae, Solanaceae y Asteraceae, las más representadas. Para cada una de las etnoespecies mencionadas se han relevado e identificado más especies asociadas a las mismas (diversidad oculta en el relato) como también algunas asociaciones erróneas en la conformación de los complejos botánicos.  Conclusiones: Las identificaciones proveídas por los autores son consistentes en la mayoría de los casos. Sin embargo, en otros casos las etnoespecies presentadas se corresponden a complejos vegetales conformados por varias especies e inclusive algunas de ellas no se corresponden con las especies descriptas e identificadas.   Sociedad Argentina de Botánica 2022-04-22 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion application/pdf text/html https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/BSAB/article/view/36650 10.31055/1851.2372.v57.n3.36650 Boletín de la Sociedad Argentina de Botánica (Journal of the Argentine Botanical Society; Vol. 57 No. 3 (2022): Setembro (Edição especial:Etnobiologia Latino-Americana) Boletín de la Sociedad Argentina de Botánica; Vol. 57 Núm. 3 (2022): Setiembre (Número Especial: Etnobiología Latinoamericana) Boletín de la Sociedad Argentina de Botánica; v. 57 n. 3 (2022): September (Special Issue: Latin American Ethnobiology) 1851-2372 0373-580X 10.31055/1851.2372.v57.n3 spa https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/BSAB/article/view/36650/37562 https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/BSAB/article/view/36650/37563 Derechos de autor 2022 Pablo César Stampella https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0
