Inventário de arborização em via urbana de Foz do Iguaçu - PR

Abstract

The afforestation of a city must be planned and based by technical criteria that allow, by the correct form, the implantation of the species. In Foz do Iguaçu – PR, the absence of a municipal plan of urban afforestation causes some conflict situations as the presence of exotic species and not recommended to the urban afforestation in municipal streets. This work aimed to inventory the afforestation in the central part of Juscelino Kubitscheck Avenue. The research was done by the method Florestal Inventory 100%, characterized by including all the arboreal individuals on the research site. 114 arboreal individuals of five different species, four families and four distinct genres were found. The specie Tipuana tipu was the one with most presence, with 92 individuals. It was observed that 60% of the species found were native and 40% were exotic. It is possible to consider countless misconceptions relative to the arboreal population in the site, showing that the plantation of the species was realized by random and without technical criteria. Thus, it shows the need of management so that the future implemented species are the appropriate to the local.
