Overview
The aim was to get to know the floristic composition and phytosociology, obtaining data to compare with another area of caatinga (at a different stage of succession), and subsequently obtaining information to better understand the successional characterisation of caatinga environments. The vegetation survey was carried out in an area of 1.0 hectare in the Córrego do Quixinxé settlement, which covers 5,561.63 hectares and is located in the municipality of Ocara - CE with geographical coordinates 04 36'49.8' South Latitude and 38 36'51' West Longitude. The area was divided into 50 plots measuring 20m x 10m. After this division, the plots were drawn completely at random. The phytosociological survey was carried out in the same order as the plots were drawn. In each plot, live individuals with a stem diameter at ground level >= 3 cm and a total height >= 1 m were measured. Cacti, bromeliads and lianas were not included. Twelve species were recorded, belonging to 11 genera and 7 botanical families, totalling 702 individuals with basal area = 3.47 m /ha and DA= 702 ind/ha.
