The Ranunculaceae family comprises 62 genera and 2525 species of plants distributed in temperate and cold areas of the northern hemisphere and in the mountains of the tropics. Ranunculaceae comprise eight genera with 21 species in Colombia, eleven native and ten non native, rather understudied in the country. This article presents a taxonomic review with keys and descriptions of the Ranunculaceae species of the capital district of Bogota. Based on field work and herbarium visits, 96 specimens were evaluated, and the presence of seven genera and 15 species were confirmed; Ranunculus with eight species, Aquilegia with two, and five genera represented by a single species: Anemone, Clematis, Consolida, Nigella and Thalictrum. Ten species are natives to Colombia (Ranunculus, Clematis and Thalictrum), and five are cultivated in Bogota. The introduced ornamental species Aquilegia pubescens and Aquilegia vulgaris are added to the district list. Ranunculus spaniophyllus is recorded for the first time in the Colombian Eastern Cordillera, an expansion of the distribution range for this rare paramo species previously reported only in the Merida cordillera of Venezuela and Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta in Colombia. This research contributes to the taxonomic knowledge of the Ranunculaceae family for the high Andean flora, especially of the Colombian Eastern Cordillera and the capital region.
