          Abstract

          La estructura y diversidad de una selva mediana subperennifolia se analizó en el ejido Andrés Quintana Roo, municipio de Felipe Carrillo Puerto, Quintana Roo. Para ello, se establecieron seis unidades de muestreo de 20 x 50 m (1,000 m²), dos unidades por condición de desarrollo de la selva (edad de la perturbación): a) incendio hace 10 años (C10), b) uso agrícola hace 24 años (C20) y c) uso ganadero hace 33 años (C30). La estructura se caracterizó mediante la distribución diamétrica y de altura de los individuos en cada condición, así como empleando los índices de valor de importancia (IVI) y forestal (IVF). Pouteria reticulata fue la especie con mayor IVI y Ficus sp. tuvo el mayor IVF, ambas en C10 y C20, mientras que Bursera simaruba y Lysiloma latisiliquum obtuvieron los mayores IVI e IVF, respectivamente, en C30. La diversidad se evaluó aplicando índices de abundancia proporcional (Shannon: H') y semejanza florística (Sorensen: IS). La diversidad de especies de brinzales, fustales y latizales fue mayor en C10, C30 y C20, respectivamente. Los fustales tuvieron, en promedio, semejanzas florísticas de 60 % entre las condiciones de desarrollo de la selva, mientras que los brinzales y latizales tuvieron menos de 50 %.

          Translated abstract

          The structure and diversity of a semi-evergreen tropical forest in the Andrés Quintana Roo ejido, located in the municipality of Felipe Carrillo Puerto, Quintana Roo, Mexico, was analyzed. To this end, six sampling units of 20 x 50 m (1,000 m²), two units per tropical forest development condition (age of disturbance), were established: a) forest fire 10 years ago (C10), b) agricultural use 24 years ago (C20) and c) pastoral use 33 years ago (C30). Forest structure was characterized by the diameter and height distribution of individuals in each condition, as well as using the importance value (IVI) and forest value (FVI) indices. Pouteria reticulata was the species with the highest IVI and Ficus sp. had the highest FVI, both in C10 and C20, while Bursera simaruba and Lysiloma latisiliquum obtained the highest IVI and FVI, respectively, in C30. Species diversity was evaluated using proportional abundance (Shannon: FT) and floristic similarity (Sorensen: IS) indices. Species diversity of seedlings, poles and saplings was higher in C10, C30 and C20, respectively. Poles had on average floristic similarities of 60 % between forest development conditions, while seedlings and saplings had less than 50 %.
