Of the research projects conducted to date on Guatemalan flora, none have specifically addressed the families of Bromeliads, Palms, the Filicineae class, and lianas of the Chocón-Machacas River basin, although there are some references to plant species throughout the department of Izabal. In 1880, Mr. F. Ducane Godman and Mr. Osbert Salvini wrote a book entitled "Biologia Centrali-americana," which includes species identification and their geographic distribution. Between 1925 and 1950, Mr. Standley and Mr. Steyermark conducted studies on the flora of Guatemala, including part of the flora of the department of Izabal. This study was published by the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago under the title "Flora of Guatemala." In 1975, the Environmental Studies Program (PERA) published a “Preliminary List of Plants of the Department of Izabal” as part of the “Geographic Distribution of the Flora of Guatemala” project.
