Brazil is the country with the greatest biological diversity on the planet, however most of the medicinal plants known and used commercially are exotic and/or cultivated. Studies on native medicinal plants are essential for the conservation of these species and the traditional knowledge associated with their use. This study aims to systematize information available in the literature on native plants occurring in the State of Alagoas. We chose the collection records referring to the municipality of Marechal Deodoro due to its large area covered by natural ecosystems, including restingas, board forests, floodplains and lagoons. For initial data collection, we used the database of scientific collections available at speciesLink (https://specieslink.net/). With the initial list of monocotyledons registered in the municipality, a Google Scholar search was carried out with the term “medicinal use” for each specie. A total of 130 species of monocotyledons, distributed in 10 families, were surveyed. The families with the highest number of species were Cyperaceae (64), Poaceae (22), Orchidaceae (19), Araceae (11), and Xyridaceae (5). A total of 51 species (39%) occurring in the study area had at least one citation in the literature for popular medicinal use, phytochemical characterization of their extracts, in vitro activity research or in vivo activity research. These species belong to eight botanical families. There was a greater number of species mentioned in the literature in the families Poaceae, Cyperaceae, Orchidaceae, which were also the three families with the greatest diversity of species collected in the area. Species from two families that occur in the area (Alismataceae and Alstroemeriaceae) had no record of “medicinal use” with the search criteria used. The results highlight the importance of local ecosystems as a shelter for medicinal plants and the need to plan sustainable management for some of these species that are the target of extractivism for medicinal purposes.
