Plântulas de espécies arbóreas na floresta ciliar do rio Mogi Guaçu, Pirassununga, SP, Brasil¹

Seedlings of tree species in the riparian forest of the Mogi Guaçu river, Pirassununga, São Paulo State, Brasil

RESUMO

The permanence of a plant species in a forest community depends on its number of specimens and its distribution in the various sizes of individuals, including seedlings. Seedlings and seeds from a forest remnant in Pirassununga were collected and analyzed for the degree of threat, possible height of the adult individual, occurrence in phytophysiognomies and region and morphological aspects. 116 seedlings available in 39 morphospecies were collected, and the germination of collected seeds provided 40 species. The present study brought news regarding the morphological aspects, the identification and the distribution of seedlings of tree species in a riparian forest area in the Mogi Guaçu River Basin and in the State of São Paulo.
