Uma área de relevante interesse biológico, porém pouco conhecida: a Reserva Florestal do Morro Grande

Abstract: The Morro Grande Forest Reserve (10,870 ha) is one of the biggest forest areas in the Atlantic Plateau. This region was intensively deforested for agriculture, wood and charcoal production, and more recently by the expansion of urban areas. The Reserve is located in the cristalline Plateau of Ibiúna, just above the Paranapiacaba Mountain (860 -1075 m above sea level), in a transition region between the rainy climate from the Atlantic coast, and the seasonal climate from inland São Paulo state. As a consequence… Show more

“…Pardini & Umetsu (2006) reported one of the largest numbers of species in the biome (n=23) in Cotia (São Paulo state) by a study using both pitfall traps as cages. Cotia is mostly covered by vegetation classified as dense mountain ombrophilous forest (Metzger et al 2006). When compared to studies from the nearby areas of the deciduous and Araucaria forests, our results show a substantially greater number of species (Galiano et al 2013n=6, Kubiak et al 2009Cherem et al 2012n=20, Cherem et al 2008n=12, Dalmagro & Vieira, 2005.…”

“…Pela sua classificação, a Reserva do Morro Grande poderia se enquadrar na transição da unidade "clima tropical úmido de altitude do Planalto Paulistano" à unidade referida como "clima tropical sub-oceânico superúmido do reverso do Planalto Atlântico". Metzger et al (2006) fornecem maior detalhamento sobre as características climáticas e geomorfológicas, bem como sobre o embasamento geológico, pedologia, hidrografia, uso e cobertura da Reserva Florestal do Morro Grande.…”

“…Os levantamentos foram planejados para amostrar as duas fisionomias florestais predominantes na RFMG: o estádio secundário médio/avançado (6950 ha) e a floresta madura (2451 ha) (Metzger et al 2006). Estes estádios foram inicialmente reconhecidos pela fisionomia, distribuição de classes de diâmetro, abundância de grandes indivíduos e espécies tardias, presença de epífitas, bromélias, bambus e clareiras, entre outros.…”
