Abstract

The objective of this study was to evaluate the natural regeneration, to characterize the syndromes of seed dispersal and successional classes, and the parameters of relative humidity, temperature and luminosity of a restored forest through planting, with 40 years old, in Viçosa, MG, Brazil. It was registered 33 families, 102 species plus one morphotype (vines) and 1,938 individuals, with high diversity (H '= 3.56) and low ecological dominance (J' = 0.77), higher percentage of early secondary successional category, at the species level (33.3%), and late secondary, level of individuals (37%) and predominance of the zoochorous dispersion. The layer of forest regeneration restored reached similar parameters to those found in natural semideciduous forests in intermediate to advanced stages of succession, and was higher in the regeneration areas restored with planting.
