  • Tesis Doctoral. Torres Robles, Silvia
    Variación geográfica de la composición y riqueza de plantas vasculares en los talares bonaerenses y su relación con el clima, sustrato, estructura del paisaje y uso Tesis Doctoral Lic. Silvia S. Torres Robles Marceo Arturi Nuncia Tur Director Codirectora Facultad de Ciencias Naturales y Museo Universidad Nacional de La Plata Año 2009 1 El tala (Celtis tala), no obstante ser el árbol más típico de la Flora bonariense es quizá uno de nuestros vegetales de área geográfica menos conocida(…) Los autores modernos, especialmente los botánicos, poco se han ocupado de esta especie a pesar de haber sido uno de los raros árboles que forman bosques naturales cerca de la Capital Federal. Cuanto más avanza el tiempo y la civilización transforma el medio, más difícil será conocer el área prístina de esta especie. Por esta razón - y antes que la destrucción sea más intensa-, he querido registrar aquí las localidades donde lo he visto crecer naturalmente(…) El observador que tenga oportunidad de verificar la existencia de bosques en otras localidades que las que menciono aquí, podrá complementar esta contribución y hacer más exacto el conocimiento del área de este interesante árbol bonariense.

    Bol. Soc. Argent. Bot. 50 (4) 2015 S. A. Contreras et al. - Contribución al conocimiento florístico del ISSNSE de 0373-580 Formosa X Bol. Soc. Argent. Bot. 50 (4): 531-574. 2015 CONTRIBUCIÓN AL CONOCIMIENTO FLORÍSTICO DEL CHACO ORIENTAL, SUDESTE DE LA PROVINCIA DE FORMOSA, ARGENTINA SILVINA A. CONTRERAS1, 2, FELIX I. CONTRERAS1, ALICIA I. LUTZ1, 2 y ALEJANDRO F. ZUCOL3 Resumen: El sureste de la provincia de Formosa integra parte de la Región del Chaco Oriental, caracterizada por una gran heterogeneidad ambiental, donde se mezclan componentes leñosos y pastizales. Esta característica compleja está vinculada con las formas del paisaje, la cual, es el resultado de la dinámica aluvional durante el Pleistoceno-Holoceno y de la migración de los cinturones fluviales de los principales ríos. En esta contribución se analiza la composición florística de las comunidades dentro del Departamento de Laishi (Formosa), con la finalidad de establecer la composición y variabilidad de sus elementos. A través datos de campo, de herbario y bibliográficos se encontraron 625 especies, donde predominan las familias de Asteraceae, Poaceae y Fabaceae. Se establecieron las siguientes unidades de vegetación: selvas, bosques, palmares, arbustales, pastizales mesófilos, pastizales hidrófilos y esteros/lagunas, donde predominaron las selvas y pastizales hidrófilos. Sobre la información obtenida de imágenes satelitales, se analizó la distribución espacial de la vegetación según la altura topográfica de preferencia, resaltando la presencia de las comunidades arbóreas. Las especies chaqueñas fueron encontradas conviviendo en muchos casos con componentes selváticos amazónicos (Yungas y Paranaense). Palabras clave: Análisis florístico, unidades de vegetación, Región Chaqueña, Villa Escolar. Summary: Contribution to the floristic knowledge of the Eastern Chaco, Formosa province, Argentina.
