Abstract: The present work was undertaken in the Cachoeira do Retiro ''Quilombola'' community, located in the municipality of Santa Leopoldina (20°06 0 04 00 S 9 40°31 0 47 00 W), in Espírito Santo State, Brazil. We expected to encounter high levels of ethnobotanical knowledge in the community due to its distance from the principal local urban center and its localization in a region of high biodiversity. Field work was undertaken between August 2005 and August 2006, employing semi-structured interviews, participant obse… Show more

“…It was calculated the priority conservation index for useful species of each vegetation formation, according to Dzerefos and Witkowski (2001), modified by Crepaldi and Peixoto (2010), in which the density measure is individual 0.1 ha. The conservation priority index was calculated through weighted values of species density, collection risk, local importance and/or diversity of use (Dzerefos & Witkowski, 2001 (Dzerefos & Witkowski 2001), in which the scale of the individuals density was modified according to Crepaldi and Peixoto (2010).…”

“…brauna apresenta madeira pesada e de grande durabilidade, mesmo em ambientes adversos, sendo utilizada em obras externas e na construção civil (Lorenzi, 2009). Devido a estes aspectos, sua madeira tem sido alvo de devastação, restando poucos fragmentos florestais com a espécie, em geral pequenos e isolados, como os destacados nos trabalhos de Carvalho et al (2007), Crepaldi & Peixoto (2010) e Versieux et al (2011). Neste contexto, estudos a respeito da germinação das sementes são o ponto de partida para o desenvolvimento de novas estratégias para a conservação da espécie, haja vista ser esta sua principal forma de propagação.…”
