| description | The diversity of vascular plants is related to the productivity and resilience of forests, and therefore, the development of indicators for itscharacterization is fundamental. The richness of vascular species (S) has been shown to be a good indicator of other biological groups diversity.It has also been proposed that the type of functional plant richness (Sg) significantly correlates with the species richness and, therefore,can be used as a substitute indicator. This paper analyzes the relationship between richness and sampling area (A), with theoreticaland empirical data, to propose a generalized theoretical framework of the relations between the parameters of the curves: S-A, Sg-A andS-Sg. The power and logarithmic models of functional vascular plant types and richness-area accumulation curves are assessed, characterizingfunctional types through a classification based on 36 functional attributes, in 15 sampling sites of 1000 m2 in the sacred-fir forestsof Mount Tlaloc, State of Mexico. Results show richness estimates comparable with the direct measurements, obtained by using onlyone type of richness to estimate the other. This can greatly simplify the implementation of diversity indicators in vascular plant surveys. |

La diversidad de plantas vasculares está relacionada con la productividad y resiliencia de los bosques, por lo tanto, el desarrollo de indicadorespara su caracterización es fundamental. La riqueza de especies vasculares (S) ha mostrado ser un buen indicador de la diversidadde otros grupos biológicos. Asimismo, se ha propuesto que la riqueza de tipos funcionales de plantas (Sg), se correlaciona significativamentecon la riqueza de especies y, por lo tanto, puede ser usada como un indicador sustituto. En este trabajo se analiza la relaciónriqueza-área de muestreo (A), con bases teóricas y datos empíricos para proponer un marco teórico generalizado de las relaciones entrelos parámetros de las curvas: S-A, Sg-A y S-Sg. Se evalúa el modelo potencial y el logarítmico de las curvas de acumulación riqueza-áreade especies de plantas vasculares y tipos funcionales, estos últimos caracterizados mediante una clasificación basada en 36 atributosfuncionales en 15 sitios de muestreo de 1000 m2 en bosques de oyamel del Monte Tláloc, Estado de México. Los resultados muestranestimaciones de riqueza equiparables con las mediciones directas usando solamente un tipo de riqueza para estimar el otro. Esto puedesimplificar considerablemente la obtención de indicadores de diversidad en inventarios de plantas vasculares.
