Composition and diversity of the vegetation in four sites of Mexico’s Northeast
During the summer of 2007, a study of the status of trees and woody vegetation was performedat four sites, in the state of Nuevo Leon, Mexico. Site one (S1, Bosque Escuela) was located at 1600 melevation in Iturbide county. Sites S2 (Crucitas, 550 m), S3 (Campus, 350 m) and S4 (Cascajoso, 300m) were...

| description | During the summer of 2007, a study of the status of trees and woody vegetation was performedat four sites, in the state of Nuevo Leon, Mexico. Site one (S1, Bosque Escuela) was located at 1600 melevation in Iturbide county. Sites S2 (Crucitas, 550 m), S3 (Campus, 350 m) and S4 (Cascajoso, 300m) were located in Linares county. In each site, 10 random plots (10 m x 10 m) were laid out, and relativeabundance, relative dominance and relative frequency were estimated. In addition, dasometric parameterssuch as height and crown diameter were determined. Plant diversity was estimated by the Shannon-Wiener index, and similarity between sites was calculated using the Jaccard index. A total of 13710 individual plants belonging to 28 familieswere registered. Leguminosae had thehighest number of species (10) followedby Fagaceae (4), Rutaceae (4), Euphorbiaceae(3), Oleaceae (3), Cupressaceae(3), Rhamnaceae (2) and Verbenaceae(2). Eighteen families included only onespecies. The site with higher and lowerShannon index was Cascajoso (2,08)and Bosque Escuela (1,64), respectively.The Jaccard index showed similarityamong species only among S2, S3 andS4 sites. The plant species more frequentwere: in S1 Quercus canbyi, Pinus pseudostrobusand Rhus pachyrranchys(11,9%); in S2 Havardia pallens (9,9%);in S3 Havardia pallens and Forestieraangustifolia (9,8%) and in S4 Acacia rigidula,Cordia boissieri and Karwinskiahumboldtiana (9,8%). S2 and S3 werethe sites with the greatest species diversity,perhaps as a result of higher rainfall. |

En el verano de 2007 se determinó la composición y diversidad de la vegetación arbustiva y arbóreaen cuatro sitios del estado de Nuevo León. El sitio 1 (S1, Bosque Escuela) a una altitud de 1600 m seubicó en el municipio de Iturbide, Nuevo León, México. Los sitios S2 (Crucitas, 550 m), S3 (Campus, 370m) y S4 (Cascajoso, 300 m) se ubicaron en el municipio de Linares, Nuevo León, México. En cada sitiose establecieron aleatoriamente 10 cuadrantes de 10 m x 10 m, en los cuales se estimaron los valoresrelativos de abundancia, dominancia, frecuencia y valor de importancia (VI) de los árboles y arbustospresentes. Además, se determinaron parámetros dasométricos como altura y diámetro de copa. La diversidadde especies para cada sitio se estimó con el índice de Shannon Wiener. La similitud entre sitios sedeterminó con el índice de Jaccard. Se registraron un total de 13 710 individuos pertenecientes a 28familias, predominando los géneros y especies de la familia Leguminosae (10) seguidos por Fagaceae(4), Rutaceae (4), Euphorbiaceae (3), Oleaceae (3), Cupressaceae (3), Rhamnaceae (2) y Verbenaceae(2). Dieciocho familias sólo presentaron una especie. El sitio con el mayor y menor índice de Shannonfueron el Cascajoso (2,08) y Bosque Escuela (1,64), respectivamente. El índice de Jaccard sólo mostróigualdad de especies entre S2, S3 y S4. Las especies de plantas más frecuentes fueron: en S1, Quercuscanbyi, Pinus pseudostrobus y Rhus pachyrrachys (con 11,9%); en S2 Havardia pallens (9,9%); en S3Havardia pallens y Forestiera angustifolia (con 9,8 %) y en S4 Acacia rigidula, Cordia boissieri y Karwinskiahumboldtiana (con 9,8%). Los sitios S2 y S3 presentaron la mayor riqueza específica de especies,posiblemente debido a tener mayor precipitación pluvial.
