RESUMO

The distribution and population structure of Warszewiczia (=Elaeagia) uxpanapensis, a tree that reaches a height of 45 m, a DBH of 1.40 m and 8 m tall buttresses, was studied on two 1-ha plots of premontane pluvial forest. It had a frequency of 49 % and a mean dominance of 6.5 %. The adult distribution was random (mean distance to the nearest neighboring tree in plot 1, it was 14.26 m, n = 15; Clark-Evans Index (IC-E) = 1.07; in plot 2, it was 15.33 m, n = 18, IC-E = 1.34,). The seedlings represented 60.3 % of the sampled population (plot 1, n = 94; plot 2, n = 85). This species has a very high capability of propagating itself vegetatively through clones ("ramets"), which influence its distribution and population structure. With a ramet density in plot 1 of 0.8 and in plot 2 of 0.3/100 m2, its propagation could be from fallen trees or branches (which also create clearings in the forest) or from standing trees and even live branches that produce adventitious roots.


Se estudió los rametes, la distribución y estructura de la población de Warszewiczia uxpanapensis, en 2 ha de bosque pluvial premontano. Este árbol alcanza hasta 45 m de altura, DAPs hasta de 1.40 m y gambas de 8 m de altura. Su frecuencia fue de 49 % y su cobertura promediode 6.5 %. La distribución de los adultos fue aleatoria (distancia promedio al vecino más cercano en la parcela 1 de 14.26 m, IC-E= 1.07, n= 15 en la parcela 2 de 15.33 m, n= 18, IC-E= 1.34). Sus plántulas representaron el 60.3 % de la población estudiada (parcela 1, n= 94; parcela 2, n= 85). Se descubrió que esta especie tiene una alta capacidad de propagarse vegetativamente por rametes, los cuales influyen en la estructura de población y distribución de la especie (con una densidad de rametes parcela 1, 0.8 y parcela 2, 0.3 rametes/100 m2). Su propagación vegetativa puede ser a partir de troncos caídos o ramas desprendidas (las cuales abren claros en el bosque), rebrotes de árboles, o ramas todavía adheridas a los árboles que son capaces de producir raíces adventicias aéreas.

RESUMO

The tropical premontane moist forest is one of the most destructed life zones in Costa Rica. For such regions, a small natural preserve system has been proposed. An inventory of trees greater than 3.5 cm in diameter at breast height was done in one hectare urban forest patch that was left under natural regeneration for 30 years. The inventory included 940 individuals of at least 55 species and 32 families. A Holdridge Complexity Index of 58 was obtained. There was a strong dominance by small-diameter trees of successional and exotic species
