“…A phytosociological study considers three principles: the analytical (portrays the size of the inventory surface, characteristics of the sampling site, and variables such as abundance, density, dominance, and the sociability of plant species), the synthetic (referring to frequency of species which compose the plant community), and syntaxonomy (establishing the phytosociological hierarchy) [9,11,15,16]. Thus, for a phytosociological study, it is necessary to take into account that vegetation varies in spatial scales, which are defined by the size of the sampled units and that several patterns can be detected only with the change in the observation scale, so the size of the sampling unit influences the analysis of spatial patterns of plant populations [17].…”
