The objective was to analyze the floristic, diversity and equability of the tree shrub stratum of home gardens (QA) in Mariana re-settlement located between Palmas and Porto Nacional municipalities in Tocantins State, Brazil. Three 20 x 30 m plots were installed in each home garden, totalizing 0.72 ha of sampled area. All shrub-tree individuals had its circumference at 1.3 m above ground level (CBH) measured when CBH ≥ 10 cm. A total of 477 individuals, 81 species, 34 families and 73 genera were verified in all QA. Shannon diversity index (H´) was 3.68 and Pielou equability indice (J´) was 0.83, for all sampled area. Individually, QA1, QA2, QA3 and QA4 presented H´ = 2.52; 3.27; 2.66 and 2.94, and J´ = 0.78; 0.90; 0.77 and 0.85, respectively. It was possible to infer that the studied QA showed high richness and diversity, evidencing great environmental heterogeneity and low ecological dominance.Downloads
