This study aimed to characterize forty genotypes (31 landrace varieties and nine commercial cultivars) of common bean (<i>Phaseolus vulgaris</i> L.) morphologically and molecularly. Morphological descriptors were evaluated during seedling, flowering, physiological maturation and post-harvest stages. Ten microsatellite markers were used for molecular screening. The markers were analyzed according to the number of alleles per locus, the allele frequency per locus and the polymorphism in content (PIC). Genetic distances and cluster analysis were performed using Bayesian inference and the UPGMA method. All black beans evaluated have anthocyanin in the cotyledons, hypocotyls and stems, and their flowers are purple. For the growth habit, 50% of the evaluated genotypes belong to type III, and at the physiological maturation stage, yellow color is predominant in the pods (85%). Through the genetic dissimilarity, three groups were observed for the likelihood reason, and five groups were observed through the UPGMA method, a strong indication of the wide genetic diversity among the evaluated genotypes. All genotypes from the Andean center of origin were grouped into the same cluster.
