          Abstract

          Se reportan 156 nuevos registros para la flora vascular del desierto costero del norte de Chile (18°38'- 21°20'S), de los que uno es nuevo para Chile (Tetragonia crystallina) y 23 son nuevos límites de distribución. Listados florísticos de tres localidades costeras del extremo norte de Chile (cerro Camaraca, Punta Madrid, caleta Junín) son informados por primera vez. Con estos nuevos registros, la flora vascular del desierto costero de las Regiones de Arica y Parinacota, y de Tarapacá queda formada por 116 especies, lo que supone la adición de 33 especies en relación con los estudios previos. Un análisis de similitud florística entre las localidades estudiadas, junto con información proveniente de la literatura para la flora de otras localidades en el desierto costero del norte de Chile y sur de Perú, indica que la similitud florística cae abruptamente entre la localidad más septentrional de Chile (cerro Camaraca) y la más austral de Perú (Tacna). Este resultado es discutido en el contexto de la biogeografía del desierto del Pacífico de Sudamérica.

          Translated abstract

          156 new records for the vascular flora of the coastal Desert of northern Chile (18°38'- 21°20'S) are reported, one of which is new for Chile (Tetragonia crystallina) and 23 are new distribution limits. Floristic checklists of three localities of northernmost Chile (cerro Camaraca, Punta Madrid, caleta Junín) are informed first time. With these new records, the vascular flora of the coastal Desert of the Arica - Parinacota and Tarapaca Regions is composed of 116 species, which means the addition of 33 species with respect to the previous reports. A similarity analysis among the floristic lists of the localities under study, plus floristic information from other sites of the coastal desert of northern Chile and southern Peru, suggests that the floristic similarity falls brusquely between the northernmost locality of Chile (cerro Camaraca) and the southernmost one of Peru (Tacna). This result is discussed in the context of the biogeography of the Pacific Desert of South-America.
