Abstract (en):
La familia Euphorbiaceae esta representada en Colombia por 78 géneros, 390 especies, 12 subespecies y 9 variedades (Cuadro 1 y listado taxonómico), no obstante, el número de especies aumentará, pues se están describiendo algunos taxones dentro de Mabea (Esser, com. pers.), Croizatia y Pausandra; además, no se incluye a Apodandra corniculata Cardiel debido a que es necesario darle un nuevo nombre, pues Apodandra es un sinónimo de Plukenetia y en este género ya ha sido utilizado el epíteto específico. Los géneros más diversos son Croton con 80 especies, Euphorbia (43 spp.), Phyllanthus (36 spp.), Acalypha (25 spp.), Alchornea (19 spp.) y Mabea (18 spp.), los restantes tienen menos de 11 especies y de éstos, 43 están representados por sólo un taxón. Dentro de los taxones endémicos para Colombia se tienen 45 especies y el género Phyllanoa, el cual sólo se ha registrado por la colección tipo. Los géneros con más especies endémicas son Croton (16 spp.) y Acalypha (6 spp.)
