Juliana de Paula-Souza is a professor of botany at Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Brazil, mainly known for her studies on the taxonomy of Violaceae.

Education and career
From Campinas, São Paulo State, Juliana de Paula-Souza graduated from the Agricultural College (ESALQ) University of São Paulo in Agronomy in 1988 and proceeded to a master's degree in plant biology at the same institution in 2002, with a thesis titled ''Estudio de las Especies de Hybanthus Jacq. (Violaceae) de Brasil''. In 2009 she obtained her PhD from the Instituto de Biociências at that university, her doctoral thesis being titled Estudios filogenéticos en Violaceae, con énfasis en la tribu Violeae y revisión taxonómica de los géneros Lianescentes de Violaceae en la Región Neotrópical.

Her postdoctoral work was carried out at the Museu de História Natural e Jardim Botânico, Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais as a Visiting Research Scholar (2009–2010) at the University of São Paulo (2011-2012) and at Ohio University (2013–2014). At Ohio (where she had previously worked in 2008 as a visiting research scholar), she studied with Harvey Ballard (Environmental & Plant Biology Department) on Brazilian violoid violet genera, molecular systematic approaches, and Ballard's collaborative Violaceae phylogeny project, before returning to the University of São Paulo. In 2011 she was a Bascom Fellow at the Missouri Botanical Garden. in 2013–2014, she returned to Ohio to do further research on Violaceae with the Ballard laboratory, including travel to major herbaria.

Juliana de Paula-Souza was appointed as an assistant professor (professor adjunto) in the botany department, Universidade Federal de São João del-Rei, in 2014 and from October 2019 at Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina.

Work
Juliana de Paula-Souza is known for her work on the systematics of Phanerogams (spermatophytes), predominantly taxonomic and phylogenetic studies and floristic surveys in Violaceae, notably the neotropical lianescent genera, including Hybanthus and Hybanthopsis. Her initial work on Hybanthus led to her describing a similar but distinct genus, Hybanthopsis, which she described in 2003. Her survey of the neotropical lianescent genera led to a revision of the genus Anchietea and recognition of new species of Anchietea Revision of another lianescent genus, Corynostylis led to reestablishment of an earlier name Calyptrion. De Paula-Souza was a co-author of the major treatment of the family in Kubitzki's Flowering Plants monograph and she published an overview of the lianescent genera. de Paula-Souza's work on the evolution and phylogeny of Violaceae project also led to a major realignment of the infrafamilial relationships based on molecular methods.
