The floristic survey of the Menyanthaceae from Bahia, Brazil, is presented as a further contribution to the knowledge of the Flora of that State. Only Nymphoides humboldtiana was recognized for Bahia; N. indica, previously cited for Brazil, is restricted to the Old World. Descriptions of the family, genus and species, illustrations, and general notes on the species are presented.
