RESUMO

The following study was developed in tracks of the Dense Ombrophilous Forest, located in the Carlos Botelho State Park, SP., in the southern of the state of São Paulo, geographical coordinates of 24º00 – 24o 15’ South latitude and 47o 55’ - 48º05 , West longitude, in the municipalities of São Miguel Arcanjo, Sete Barras, Capão Bonito and Tapiraí, with the objective of comparison of three sampling methods (parcels, point centred quarter and relascope) in determining the species composition, phytosociology and diversity of species in the arboreal component. In this vegetation, the sampling showed of 65 botanical families and 427 arboreas species. With the use of aerial images two areas were selected, the first one, designated Grid 1, being located in the highest part of the Park in the Sao Miguel Arcanjo municipality, and the second, designated Grid 2, located at a height of 650m., in the Sete Barras municipality. The height difference between these two areas is approximately 200m. In the Grid 1, the parcels method showed 9543 individuals and 250 species, the point center quarter method 1276 individuals and 175 species and the relascope method 638 species and 155 species. On Grid 2, we collected by the parcels method 10124 individuals and 345 species, the point center quarter method showed 1270 individuals and 207 species and the relascope method 578 individuals and 157 species. The families Myrtaceae, Lauraceae, Fabaceae and Sapotaceae presented the highest species richness in the three samples methods. The diversity of the species determined by the Shannon index recorded the highest index for the parcels method in Grid 2, H =4.7202 and the smallest index was obtained by the relascope method H =4.411, and these values are among the highest determined up to the present for the arboreal components of the vegetation for the Carlos Botelho State Park, SP. Euterpe edulis and Ocotea catharinensis were the outstanding species, by presenting the highest values in the Significant Value Index, independent of the sampling method. The Euclidian Distance calculated for the phytosociological parameters, Relative Frequency, Relative Dominance, Relative Density and Significant Value Index, shows that the samples methods behaves differently in characterizing the vegetation in Grid 1 and Grid 2.
