摘要

one of the species with a diversification potential for non-timber forest products is euterpe precatoria mart., whose fruit management for pulp production includes social, economical and ecological aspects. this study analyzes the density, structure, dynamics and stability of a population euterpe precatoria in terra firme and inundated forests to evaluate the ecological potential of management. the mean adult density in inundated forests was 60 individuals ha-1 and 23 individuals ha-1 in terra firme forest. population structure showed an inverse j shape. there was a high fruit production and the population stability was variable among the study sites. these ecological characteristics suggest that this species has a high management potential, such as high density and frequency, abundant regeneration and high fruit production. a greater management potential was observed in inundated forests when compared with terra firme.
