This paper shows the actual situation of the ethnobotany in Mexico, with some notable studies carried out in recent years or in process. We present some general information for the ethnobotany in Latin America as comparative point in the development of this discipline. Comments are given in epistemological aspects and the qualitative or quantitative approaches for better explanation of the ethnobotany and its multidisciplinary orientation.
