Floristic and ecological attributes of a Seasonal Semideciduous Atlantic Forest in a key area for conservation of the Zona da Mata region of Minas Gerais State, Brazil

Abstract: -(Floristic and ecological attributes of a Seasonal Semideciduous Atlantic Forest in a key area for conservation of the Zona da Mata region of Minas Gerais State, Brazil). We evaluated the floristic and ecological attributes of a seasonal semideciduous forest remnant (SSF) (500-1,050 m) located in a key area for biodiversity conservation. The importance of the fragment to the ecosystem conservation was revealed by its species richness (253), diversity (Shannon index = 4.6; Simpson's complementary index = 0.98)… Show more

“…In Brazil, studies on naturally regenerated SSF aging from 5-33 years found an average of 2-3 species threatened of extinction (among the vulnerable, threatened, and critically endangered categories) and 9-10 species endemic in each restoration site (Matos et al, 2019;Safar et al, 2020). In a preserved remnant of SSF, Rocha et al (2017) identified nine threatened and 44 endemic species. Considering that we found an average of only one threatened and four endemic species among the studied restorations, we can assume that in terms of priority species for conservation, restoration plantings do not achieve results similar to regenerated and/or preserved forests.…”
