HERAZO VITOLA, Fran; MERCADO GOMEZ, Jorge e MENDOZA CIFUENTES, Humberto. Structure and floristic composition of tropical dry forest in the Montes de María (Sucre - Colombia). Ciencia en Desarrollo [online]. 2017, vol.8, n.1, pp.71-82. ISSN 0121-7488.
The structure and arboreal composition was characterized in fragments of tropical dry forest located in the Montes de María in the state of Sucre (Colombia). Seven localities were sampled through the RAP method and proposed modifications. A total of 363 species were recorded in 196 genera and 65 families. The families with the greatest ecological importance were Capparaceae, Fabaceae and Rubiaceae.The species with higher IVI were Simira cordifolia, Trichilia acuminate and Myrcia fallax. With respect to the floristic structure, the growth habit shrubby was the most predominant, followed by trees and herbs as the least representative. The altimetric, diametrical classes and basal areas indicated that the localities of "Paraíso", "Pajarito", "Garrapata" and "Casa Amarilla uno" were the better state, since they accumulated the highest number in the class II (adult trees between 5,1 and 10 m.) and larger basal area, class III (timber trees between 22 and 46 cm).
