Abstract

The spatial distribution pattern of the three bromeliad species found within the dense Atlantic Rain Forest of the APA - Serra do Guararú - Guarujá-SP was measured by the index species distribution Morisita (Id). In total 12 plots were analyzed and three species of bromeliads were evaluated Nidularium innocentti; Nidularium biobergioides and Nidularium procerum. The three species showed the Id values ​​greater than 1 (respectively 1.6, 1.4 and 1.5)
