| Resumen en inglés | Tools are being used as complement to the study of plant usage by communities to quantify ethnobotanical data. We utilized techniques to evaluate informants use citations agreement and the importance of species and families to the 51 interviewed persons of the community of Ponta Grossa neighborhood, Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Then we have utilized the Use Value (UV) method and the corrected percentage of Agreement related to the Main Uses (cAMU) for the 142 species mentioned in this work. In order of Use Value, the Aloe arborescens Mill., Citrus × aurantium L., Achyrocline satureioides (Lam.) DC., Foeniculum vulgare Mill, Eugenia uniflora L., Cunila microcephala Benth., Citrus limon (L.) Osveck, Plectranthus barbatus Andrews, Cymbopogon citratus (DC.) Stapf, Psidium guajava L., Artemisia absinthium L., Ocimum basilicum L., Plantago tomentosa Lam., Rosmarinus officinalis L., Persea americana Mill., Aloysia citrodora Palau, Sambucus australis Cham. & Schltdl., Cuphea carthagenensis (Jacq.) J.F. Macbr., Petroselinum crispum (Mill.) Nyman ex A.W. Hill, Ocimum selloi Benth. and Tanacetum vulgare L. species were considered the most important to the studied community. The most important families were Asphodelaceae, Caprifoliaceae, Rutaceae and Lythraceae. We have considered as main species those that presented at least 24% of corrected percentage of Agreement related to the Main Uses (cAMU). They are: Eugenia uniflora, Achyrocline satureioides, Psidium guajava, Cunila microcephala, Plectranthus barbatus, Citrus × aurantium, Citrus limon, Cymbopogon citratus, Punica granatum L., Sechium edule (Jacq.) Sw., Sphagneticola trilobata (L.) Pruski, Aloysia citrodora, Foeniculum vulgare, Plectranthus neochilus Schltr., Artemisia absinthium, Lippia alba (Mill.) N.E. Br., Mikania laevigata Sch.
