Based on recent collections and fieldwork efforts, we provide an updated list of Sapotaceae of Espírito Santo state, Brazil and, in addition, we present the expanded geographical distribution of Manilkara multifida T.D. Penn. and Pouteria atlantica Alves‐Araújo & M.Alves, two endangered tree species from Atlantic forest with a poorly known biology. They are new records for Espírito Santo state‐Brazil and southeastern Brazil. We also emend the species original description by providing descriptions and images of the fruits and seeds for both species, as well as maps of the current geographical distributions, color photographs, and taxonomic comments.
