This work presents a floristic survey of the family Passifloraceae in APA Serra Branca/Raso da Catarina, located in the municipality of Jeremoabo, Bahia. The family has a pantropical distribution and includes about 20 genera and 600 species. In Brazil there are four genera, Ancistrothyrsus, Dilkea, Mitostemma and Passiflora, the latter being the most diverse. In the Caatinga biome there are 29 species, including one species of Mitostemma and the others of Passiflora. The samples analyzed were collected from August/2011 to February/2013, and the analyses were supplemented with dried collections kept in the following herbaria: ALCB, HRB and HUEFS. Four species of the genus Passiflora were recorded: Passiflora cincinnata, P. foetida, P. luetzelburgii and P. setacea. Comments about the morphology and taxonomy, data on geographical distribution and phenology, illustrations, and a key to the taxa studied are provided.
