Resumo: The discovery of the American nature arrived to the Europeans through two ways, separated in time. In a first period, between the initial news on the Columbus discovery and the beginning of the second half of the 16th century, the information spreaded through the descriptions of travellers and chroniclers. In the second, from the 1540s to the beginnings of the 17th century, some texts started to be edited, generally by doctors, traders and gardeners. These works grouped the American plants together, according to strange analogies to similar ones in the Old World. It was only in the 17th century, through the press of Plantino and the pen of Charles L'Ecluse, that appeared the first compilations dedicated exclusively to the new materials proceeding from both Indias.

En un primer período, el que media entre la noticia del propio descubrimiento colombino y el final de la primera mitad del XVI, la información nos alcanza a través de las descripciones legadas por viajeros y cronistas. En el segundo, desde los años cuarenta del siglo XVI hasta los comienzos del XVII, comenzarán a editarse algunos textos, generalmente a cargo de médicos y jardineros, en los que el mundo vegetal americano empieza a ocupar un espacio, agrupadas sus producciones en función de extrañas analogías con las similares del Viejo Continente. Habrá que esperar a los comienzos del XVII para que, a través de los tórculos de Plantino y con la pluma de Charles de l´Ecluse, se ofrecieran las primeras compilaciones dedicadas, con exclusividad, a los nuevos materiales procedentes de las dos Indias.A descoberta da natureza americana chegou aos europeus através de duas vias, separadas no tempo.
