ABSTRACT
The present study had as its objective to carry out an ethnobotanical survey of Copaíba in Cerradão, Carrasco, Wetland and Caatinga phytophysiognomies in the Chapada do Araripe, Northeast, Brazil, with a standardized form. Semi-structured interviews and the snowball technique were used. Usage diversity, plant part consensus and level of fidelity were analyzed to verify the consensus of the usage categories, plant part and indicated diseases. In the study, 61 therapeutic indications were cited for Cerradão (38), Caatinga (33), Pantanal (20) and Carrasco (15), with wound healing, rheumatic arthritis, bone pain, back problems and throat inflammation being the most cited.Despite Cerradão and Caatinga registering a greater number of therapeutic indications, their general level of fidelity was low, ranging from 3.57 to 25 and 4.35 to 26.09, respectively. Of the 13 registered categories, musculoskeletal and skin disorders were the categories with the highest usage diversity values among the studied phytophysiognomies. The data obtained for Copaifera langsdorffii Desf. emphasize its therapeutic potential and the need for studies that evaluate the species as a source of biologically active natural products, thus serving as a basis for future studies.
