This research has taken place in four of 100 x 100 m in São José do Aracy, in the municipallity of Santa Bárbara do Pará, State of Pará, Brazil. Each part was divided in five transects of 20 x 10 m.The arboreal woody species with DBH³ 10cm and palms with CBH 10cm were evaluated and the height was estimated. This collected botanical material was identified in family, genera and species, and was incorporated in the João Murça Pires Herbarium, at Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi (MPEG). For phytosociology analysis were calculated Relative Density (DR), Relative Frequency (FR), Relative Dominance (DOMR), Index Value of Importance (IVI), Index of Value of Coberture (IVC) and this Index of similarity of Sorenson (S'), Index of Diversity of Shannon (H') and Equability (E'). These results showed 29 families, 58 genera and 70 species. These families with major diversity were Caesalpiniaceae, Mimosaceae and Papilionaceae, with nine, eight and seven species respectively. Arecaceae and Papilionaceae obtained major density (27.75% and 25.84%); thirteen families were frequently with 4.88%; Papilionaceae obtained major dominance and Index value of importance (37.50% and 68.21%); Euterpe oleracea Mart. presented major relative density while Pterocarpus officinalis Jacq. presented major relative dominance, major Index of value of importance and coberture. This Index of diversity of 2.63 was considered low, with equability of 0.63 and similarity of 0.60. The floodplain forest presented low diversity in the species.
Este estudo teve como objetivo conhecer a composição florística e a estrutura do estrato arbóreo de uma floresta de várzea na localidade de São José do Aracy, no município de Santa Bárbara do Pará, estado do Pará, Brasil. Foram instaladas quatro parcelas de 100 x 100 m subdivididas em cinco transectos de 20 x 100 m e foram amostradas as espécies arbóreas lenhosas e palmeiras. Para as espécies lenhosas adotou-se diâmetro à altura do peito (DAP) ³ 10cm e para palmeiras a circunferência à altura do peito (CAP) ³ 10cm e estimou-se a altura. O material botânico coletado foi identificado em nível de família, gênero e espécie, sendo incorporado ao herbário João Murça Pires do Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi (MPEG). Na análise fitossociológica foram calculados os parâmetros de Densidade Relativa (DR%), Freqüência Relativa (FR%), Dominância Relativa (DOMR%), Índice de Valor de Importância (IVI), Índice de Valor de Cobertura (IVC), Índice de similaridade de Sorenson (S'), Índice de diversidade de Shannon (H') e Equabilidade (E'). Os resultados mostraram 29 famílias, 58 gêneros e 70 espécies. As famílias com maior diversidade foram Caesalpiniaceae, Mimosaceae e Papilionaceae, com nove, oito e sete espécies, respectivamente; Arecaceae e Papilionaceae obtiveram maior densidade (27,75% e 25,84%); treze famílias foram mais freqüentes com 4,88% entre elas; Papilionaceae com maior dominância e índice de valor de importância (37,50% e 68,21); Euterpe oleracea Mart. apresentou maior densidade relativa e Pterocarpus officinalis Jacq., maior dominância relativa, maior índice de valor de importância e de cobertura. O índice de diversidade de 2,63 foi considerado baixo, com equabilidade de 0,63 e similaridade de 0,60. A várzea estudada apresentou baixa diversidade em espécies.

Estudiamos la riqueza y composición de especies vegetales en tres afloramientos rocosos (lajas) en Lomerío, Santa Cruz, Bolivia, dentro de un bosque seco tropical. Determinamos la variación de la vegetación desde el centro hacia el borde de las lajas, además que caracterizamos algunas especies propias de este hábitat. La riqueza de especies varía entre lajas, pero, en forma conjunta esta riqueza puede ser mayor a otros tipos de bosque aledaños a las lajas. La riqueza de especies fue mayor en el borde que en el centro de las lajas. En el borde de las lajas, la riqueza de especies varia según la distancia al centro de las lajas; la mayor riqueza se encontró en los primeros 10 m del borde. En el centro de las lajas Deuterocohnia meziana Kuntze ex Mez fue la especie más dominante, mientras que las especies más abundantes fueron D. meziana y Monvillea kroenleinii R. Kiesling. En el borde de las lajas Anthurium plowmanii Croat, Pseudananas sagenarius (Arruda) Camargo, Urera baccifera L., Casearia gossypiosperma Briq., Aspidosperma rigidum Rusby y Cereus tacuaralensis Cárdenas fueron las especies más abundantes. De acuerdo a las clases diamétricas, se puede considerar que existe regeneración natural para las principales especies arbóreas. Las lajas son hábitats muy importantes que deben considerarse dentro del manejo forestal de bosques naturales adyacentes, puesto que constituyen lugares de alta diversidad y endemismo de plantas y animales y que son refugios y fuentes de alimentación de muchas especies de animales.
Plant species richness and composition was studied on three rock outcrops (lajas) in a tropical dry forest in Lomerio, Bolivia. The variation in vegetation was determined from the center to the periphery of the influence of the rock outcrops and plant species indicators of rock outcrop habitats were identified. Species richness varied among lajas, but was higher in rock outcrop habitats compared to adjoining forests. Species richness was highest on the periphery of the rock outcrops compared to the vegetated islands on the center of the outcrop. The highest species richness was encountered 10 m from the vegetated border on the periphery of the pure rock surface. Deuterocohnia meziana Kuntze ex Mez was the most dominant (highest ground cover) plant species colonizing the center of the rock outcrops, while D. meziana and Monvillea kroenleinii R. Kiesling were the most abundant. On the periphery of the laja Anthurium plowmanii Croat, Pseudananas sagenarius (Arruda) Camargo, Urera baccifera L., Casearia gossypiosperma Briq., Aspidosperma rigidum Rusby and Cereus tacuaralensis Cárdenas were the most dominant species. Regeneration appears to be occurring for the principal tree species. Lajas are key habitats that should be considered in the natural management of forests in which they are imbedded. They constitute areas of high biodiversity and endemic species and are refuges and feeding areas for many animal species.
