RODRIGUEZ GUERRA, Yoel; VALDES SAENZ, María Adela; HERNANDEZ RAMOS, Hiram  e  SORIA RE, Sandra. Methodological guide for ethnobotanical study of forest species in Amazonian and related communities. Rev cubana ciencias forestales [online]. 2019, vol.7, n.1, pp. 98-110. ISSN 2310-3469.

The ethnobotanical study is carried out due to the accelerated loss of traditional knowledge, forest degradation and natural habitats in Amazonian communities. This work proposes a methodological guide that facilitates accessibility for obtaining information in the ethnobotanical study of superior lignified and ruderal species for medicinal purposes and other uses. A survey was made that proposes the technique Interlocutor - Medium - Interlocutor for the dialogue, with a scientific character and the handling of the survey in three stages: application, validation and generalization, obtaining the ethnobotanical information that the Amazonian communities treasure in agreement with their ethnicity of origin. The results demonstrated the effectiveness in the application of the survey through the relationship established between the researcher and community leaders, ancestral healers, farmers, housewives, people of different ages and other members with interest in the subject, facilitating accessibility for the location and identification of superior lignified and ruderal species for medicinal purposes and other uses.
