Resumen

The Convolvulaceae is a diverse family and it is particularly well represented in Mexico. The current inventory confirms the presence of 313 species within Mexico, and this quantity represents nearly 20% of the family’s global diversity. Convolvulaceae species are found in all states of our country but are most frequent at elevations below 1500 m. The preferred habitat is tropical deciduous forest and secondary communities derived from it.  Whereas most species are herbaceous to woody climbers, it is noteworthy that some species are arborescent, and the distribution of this growth form is essentially Mexican, with a few species in the Andes.
