摘要
the structure of the mangrove forests at sˋo mateus river estuary was analyzed using the plot method. mangrove species at the estuary are avicennia germinans (l.) stearn., avicennia schaueriana stapft %26 leechm., laguncularia racemosa (l.) gaertn., and rhizophora mangle l. structural analyzes were performed in four sites. in all stands, the dbh varied from 8.12 to 29.6 cm, average height from 5.4 to 12.0 m, the basal area from 7.21 to 31.1 m2.ha-1, and the density from 450 a 1,450 ind.ha-1. sites under larger influence of the tides, presented smaller structural development and dominance of r. mangle. l. racemosa and a. germinans were dominant in sites with fresh water predominance. the results obtained demonstrated that mangrove which was studied presented a good structural development in relation to other mangroves located in the esp赤rito santo state.
