Abstract
Treze espécies de Ficus L. (Moraeeae) ocorrentes em Viçosa, MG, foram descritas botanicamente. Foram ainda levantadas as condições ecológicas dos locais onde as amostras foram coletadas, os usos atuais e potenciais e, para as espécies exóticas, foram determinadas a origem e a época de introdução no Brasil. Discute-se de maneira sucinta o uso do gênero no paisagismo e arborização urbana. O trabalho é ilustrado com pranchas de ramos vegetativos e detalhes dos sicônios.
