Graziela Maciel Barroso (1912–2003) was a Brazilian botanist who has been known as a leading expert of the flora of Brazil, as well as a specialist of Compositae.[1][2] She was Chairman and Professor of the Department of Plant Biology at the University of Brasília, and has published three volumes of Sistemática de Angiospermas do Brasil.[3] The standard author abbreviation G.M.Barroso is used to indicate this person as the author when citing a botanical name.[4][5] Retired from the classroom in 1982, her fourth book, Fruits and Seeds, was published in 1999.
Barroso identified over one hundred species, and two bromeliads have been named in her honor: Tillandsia grazielae and Tillandsia barrosoae,[6][7] as well as Philodendron grazielae. More than 25 more plant species identified in recent years have been named after her, such as Dorstenia grazielae (caiapiá-da-graziela) from the Moraceae family and Diatenopteryx grazielae (maria-preta).[8][9] Also, three genera of plants have been named after her: Grazielanthus (from the family Monimiaceae),[10] Grazielia (from Asteraceae family),[11] and Grazielodendron (from Fabaceae family).[12][13]
