Species richness of fern and lycophyte in an urban park in the Rio dos Sinos basin, Southern Brazil

Abstract: In the northeastern region of the State of Rio Grande do Sul in Southern Brazil, specifically in the Rio dos Sinos basin, urban parks are an important alternative for the conservation of the remaining natural habitats, as well as for the maintenance and perpetuation of biodiversity. A floristic survey of fern and lycophyte species in the Parque Municipal Henrique Luís Roessler (PMHLR) (29° 41' S and 51° 06' W; alt. 16.4 m) in Novo Hamburgo, (State of Rio Grande do Sul, RS) described their life-forms, as well a… Show more

“…This suggests C. atrovirens is potentially a great competitor, being able to increase population size in the study forest, where habitat conditions are not adverse. Among the four tree fern species recorded by Schmitt and Goetz (2010), C. atrovirens was the only one with generalised occurrence at Henrique Luís Roessler Municipal Park. Page (1979) emphasized that the production of spores may be high when the plant is competing with others, and perhaps, when the group reaches maturity.…”

“…No que diz respeito samambaias e licófitas, poucos são os estudos florísticos realizados em unidades de conservação no RS, que buscam o incremento do conhecimento das espécies locais e que visam o auxílio no reconhecimento das mesmas pelos gestores e comunidade científica em geral. Dentre estes incluem-se Schmitt et al (2006) na Floresta Nacional de Canela; Goetz et al (2012) no Parque Natural Municipal de Ronda; Schmitt & Goetz (2010) no Parque Municipal Henrique Luiz Roessler, e Becker et al (2013) no Parque Natural Municipal Tupancy.…”

“…The presence of a center of diversity and endemism of ferns and lycophytes in the Atlantic Forest of southeastern Brazil (Tryon 1972), is relevant for the diversity of southern Brazil, including the Coastal Region of the state of Rio Grande do Sul. This diversity within Rio Grande do Sul is represented by approximately 397 species (Sehnem 1977), mainly known from regional surveys (Mondin & Silveira 1989;Bueno & Senna 1992;Senna & Waechter 1997;Athayde-Filho & Windisch 2006;Schmitt et al 2006;Lehn et al 2009;Santos & Windisch 2008Schmitt & Goetz 2010Becker et al 2013;Silva et al 2013;Gonzatti et al 2014a;Gonzatti et al 2014b;Mallmann & Schmitt 2014), phytogeographic and palynological reviews (Sehnem 1977;Lorscheitter et al 1998;1999;2001;, and research on ecology, phenology and development (Schmitt & Windisch 2010;Schneider & Schmitt 2011;Schmitt & Windisch 2012;Rocha et al 2013;Neumann et al 2014;Quevedo et al 2014; among others).…”
