          Abstract

          Florestas ribeirinhas são caracterizadas por alta heterogeneidade ambiental, onde diferentes fatores físicos e bióticos regulam o mosaico vegetacional. Embora sejam áreas prioritárias à conservação, devido a sua fragilidade e importância, poucos estudos vêm sendo desenvolvidos nestes ambientes, em especial no Rio Grande do Sul. O objetivo do presente estudo é caracterizar a composição florística e a estrutura fitossociológica de um trecho de floresta ribeirinha em Santa Maria, RS. Para o levantamento, foram demarcadas 100 parcelas de 10x10m cada, dispostas paralelamente ao curso do rio, onde todos os indivíduos arbóreos PAP > 15cm foram amostrados. Foram amostrados 2.195 indivíduos vivos e mais 137 mortos ainda em pé. Os indivíduos vivos pertencem a 57 espécies de 47 gêneros distribuídos em 26 famílias. As espécies com maiores valores de importância foram Gymnanthes concolor Spreng, Sebastiania commersoniana (Baill.) Smith & Downs, Eugenia uniflora L., Plinia rivularis (Camb.) Rotman e Sebastiania brasiliensis Spreng. O índice de diversidade (H') foi de 2,73 nats/indivíduos e a equabilidade (J') 0,69 nats/indivíduos, valores considerados intermediários em comparação a outros levantamentos. A maioria das espécies amostradas (57%) provém do oeste do Estado, características das bacias do Paraná-Uruguai, enquanto que 41% são de ampla distribuição e apenas uma espécie provém do corredor atlântico.

          Riverine forests have great environmental diversity, where many factors, physical and biotical, play a role on the vegetation mosaic. Although riverine forests are hot spots for conservation, because of their fragility and ecological importance, few studies has been made in these areas, especially in Rio Grande do Sul State. The aim of this work is to determine the floristic composition and the vegetation structure of arboreal species in a riverine forest in Santa Maria municipality. All individuals with PBH > 15 cm were sampled within 100 plots, each one 100m². A total of 2,195 living and 137 standing dead individuals were sampled, belonging to 57 species and 26 botanicals families. The species with the largest importance values are Gymnanthes concolor Spreng, Sebastiania commersoniana (Baill.) Smith & Downs, Eugenia uniflora L., Plinia rivularis (Camb.) Rotman and Sebastiania brasiliensis Spreng. The diversity index (H') was 2.73 nats/individuals and the equability (J') 0.69 nats/individuals, which are considered intermediates values when compared with others works. More than half of the species (57%) belong to the eastern migratory group, characteristic of the Paraná-Uruguai basin, while 41% of the species have a large distribution in the State and only one specie belong to the Atlantic corridor.
