Abstract Due to the knowledge gaps about the representatives of Ipomoea in the state of Ceará, we present here the synopsis of this genus as part of the “Flora of Ceará: knowing to conserve” project. This study was based on the analysis of exsiccates and images of type collections, consultation of specialized bibliographies and field expeditions. We recorded 42 species, among these five are endemic to Caatinga domain. We present an identification key, characterization and morphological relationship between related species, geographic distribution data, flowering and fruiting period, illustration of diagnostic characters, photographs and basionyms of the studies taxa.
