Forest structure and tree species composition of the understory of two central Amazonian várzea forests of contrasting flood heights
چکیده انگلیسی
Independent of the forest type, floristic similarity between the understory and the overstory amounted to approximately 35%, and to approximately 10% when compared to other understory inventories in Amazonian várzea. Although the inventoried area of the understory amounted to only 16% of that of the overstory, species richness accounted for approximately 52-56% of that of the overstory. The results indicate that the understory flora of várzea forests is distinct and that it significantly increases local tree species richness. The understory flora of várzea forests therefore should be addressed in floristic inventories that provide the basis for regional and/or basin-wide estimations of tree diversity.
