E-mail: Abstract: Studies of temporal dynamics for grassland sites report that fire suppression plays a crucial role in floristic changes. The objective of this study was to verify whether after seven years without fire, communities showed variations in terms of composition, life forms, pollination and dispersal syndromes. The first survey (T0) was conducted from September 1999 to October 2000, while the second (T1) took place from August 2006 to August 2007. The floristic results in T1 were compared with the survey in T0 through the Sorensen similarity index and Chi-square tests. Over time, there were differences in the composition, life forms and pollination and dispersion syndromes. The evidence of changes suggests that the frequency of the fire regime can be considered the main agent for change in the flora of these communities. Introduction In South America, the largest savanna region is located in Brazil, and is called Cerrado, and as in other savannas, The dynamic process in a community is characterized by patterns, mechanisms and, in many systems, successive (Gottsbergerthe fire regime and is anSilberbauer-Gottsberger important factor in the 2006a). evolution In disturbances are important sources of changes in the of the landscape and, consequently, of the vegetation landscape (Glenn-Lewin and van der Maarel 1992).

A floristic and vegeta- tion study was carried out in the grassland formations at Morro São Pedro, Porto Alegre municipality, Rio Grande do Sul State, a granitic elevation area, so far poorly surveyed, that cradles important natural vegetation remnants of the region. After the study, which lasted from April 2005 to March 2009, we found 497 angiosperm species, distributed in four main grassland formation types: dry grassland, rocky grassland, humid grassland and wetlands. Among the species list three species are noteworthy: Alstroemeria albescens, a new species for the science, Lepuropethalon spathulatum, a new record for Southern Brazil, and Thrasyopsis juergensii, a new record for the Pampa biome. Based on our results and on support from other papers we concluded that ca. 65% of the grassland species present in the granitic hills of the region belong to seven main botanical families (Astera- ceae, Poaceae, Fabaceae, Cyperaceae, Rubiaceae, Verbenaceae and Apiaceae). The species belonging to these families are also determining in the vegetation phytophysiognomical and structural composition, so that cespitous grasses predominate in the landscape, shaping a continuous gramineous layer.

It is an important aspect of their sexual attractiveness, a sense of well being and a sense of self confi- dence. Vitiligo is an acquired depigmentation disorder of skin affecting 1% - 4% of the world pop- ulation. Neither life threatening nor symptomatic (except that depigmented patches burn easily when exposed to the sun) the effects of vitiligo can be cosmetically and psychologically devastat- ing. Because the disease is still not understood, there is a plethora of different treatments ap- proaches, but they are largely unsatisfactory from patient’s perspective. Objective: To report the outcomes from oral use of an infusion of leaves of Solanum paniculatum L., Jacaranda brasiliensis and Sonchus oleraceus for treatment of vitiligo.

Bot. 42 (3-4): 347 - 357. 2007 ARTÍCULO INVITADO Plant diversity and galling arthropod diversity searching for taxonomic patterns in an animal-plant interaction in the Neotropics MILTON DE SOUZA MENDONÇA, JR.1 Summary: Gall-inducers are a special guild of endophytic herbivores generating distinct structures known as galls. Gallers are species-specific, as the galls they induce: each gall morphotype is unique. The relationship between plants and gallers is close, and some of the hypotheses to explain galling diversity consider plants directly; others do not. Here I review current diversity hypotheses on galls and their hosts, adding ideas on the interpretation of galler host plant data. The example comes from an ongoing standardised inventory of galls and hosts in Rio Grande do Sul (RS) state, southern Brazil. The questions addressed here are whether: a) galls occur consistently on some plant taxa in different areas, b) these taxa are important for vegetation composition, and c) taxon size influences galling richness. Families harbouring more gallers are usually the same throughout the Neotropics (Fabaceae, Myrtaceae, and in RS, Asteraceae), which is not unexpected as these are important components of vegetation. Larger plant families have more galls, a pattern driven by Asteraceae. At lower taxonomic levels, the dominance of a few taxa in galler richness («super-hosts») is higher. Mikania and Eugenia, for example, hold much more galls than others in the RS survey. Key words: gall, species richness, plant taxon size hypothesis, Fabaceae, Myrtaceae, Asteraceae. Resumo: Diversidade de plantas e diversidade de artrópodes galhadores.

The objective of this work was to document traditional knowledge regarding the use of medicinal plants by São Tomé community residents that had its physical area affected by the reservoir of a hydroelectric plant in the region of the Araguari river valley, Amapá, Brazil. Data were collected from May to October 2014. Non-probabilistic sampling (n = 15) and participant observation were used to select local experts who understood about the use of medicinal plants. Socio-demographic and ethnobotanical data were collected during semi-structured interviews. There were 45 species distributed in 31 botanical families, with indicative of medic- inal use by local informants. The main parts used of the plants were bark and leaves. Keywords: rural communities, ethnospecies, hydroelectric, ethnobotany RESUMO A Amazônia possui muitas espécies vegetais com potencial para uso medicinal e um vasto conhecimento tradicional acumulado ao longo dos anos pelos povos tradicionais que habitam a região.
