Plant endemism in two forests in southern Bahia, Brazil

摘要: An important factor in determining species rarity is the geographic distribution of species. Estimates were made level endemism flora two sites southern Bahian wet forest zone. for Atlantic biome and much more restricted area Bahia northern Espi´rito Santo are derived from analyses distributions known each area. The checklist based on identified specimens resulting intensive collecting a near Serra Grande (40km north Ilhe´us) Una Biological Reserve south Ilhe´us). Slightly less than half (45.2% at 47.7% Grande) have widespread 7.4% site disjunct between coastal forests Amazonia. In Reserve, 44.1% endemic to 28.1% Santo. At Grande, 41.6% 26.5%
