Abstract
Morphometry is a mechanism used to measure the differences among species from the study of the relationship between size and shape, creating comparative references, and allowing proper identification. The morphometric study aims to characterize different morphological types of an organism which, in turn, may present disproportionate growth, giving rise to a nonlinear relationship between these characteristics. This study aimed to analyze and describe possible reproductive variations in individuals of Ipomoea asarifolia, where floral structures were measured with the aid of a manual caliper, ruler and tapes, as well as equivalent photographs for laboratory morphometric evaluation. The study demonstrates the importance of research to understand the variation of floral morphs within a population, even if it is in an anthropized area because, although subtle, changes can alter the entire reproductive system.
