Oregano is a bushy herbaceous plant, commonly used in culinary purposes. Its economic importance is due to their uses not only as a condiment for food but also in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and liquor. The objective of this research was to study the ecological distribution, presence and abundance of populations of oregano (Lippia graveolens HBK) and contribute to current knowledge of the ecological status of this species in Tamaulipas, Mexico. In field surveys directed in Mendez, San Carlos, Hidalgo, Casas, Jaumave and Bustamante, This are Tamaulipas municipalities where is presented and distributed oregano, and the study showed that there was an average abundance of 905 plants per hectare oregano. When setting up this parameter, the more abundant quantities of oregano where founf in the municipality of Jaumave which was followed by Mendez and Hidalgo. This study shows the vegetation types in which oregano is abundant. Particularly L. graveolens are thorny bushes and scrub that is located under high Subin. The total abundance of L. graveolens was represented by 2173 individuals distributed among the 24 sampling sites. The information obtained is important to determine actions for sustainable management or conservation ecology. El orégano es una planta herbácea-arbustiva comúnmente utilizada con propósitos culinarios. Su importancia económica se debe a sus usos, no solo como condimento de alimentos sino también en la elaboración de cosméticos, fármacos y licores. El objetivo de esta investigación fue estudiar los aspectos ecológicos de distribución, presencia y abundancia de las poblaciones de orégano (Lippia graveolens H.B.K.) y contribuir al conocimiento del estado ecológico actual de esta especie en Tamaulipas, México. En muestreos de campo dirigidos en Méndez, San Carlos, Hidalgo, Casas, Jaumave y Bustamante, municipios de Tamaulipas en los que se presenta y distribuye el orégano, se registró una abundancia promedio de 905 plantas de orégano por hectárea. Al ser jerarquizado este parámetro, el municipio más abundante en orégano fue Jaumave, seguido de Méndez e Hidalgo. El presente estudio refleja que los tipos de vegetación en los que sobresale en abundancia L. graveolens son matorral bajo espinoso y matorral alto subinerme. La abundancia total de L. graveolens quedó representada por 2173 individuos distribuidos en los 24 sitios de muestreo. La información obtenida es de importancia para determinar acciones de manejo sustentable o de conservación ecológica.
