description | High fragmentation and deterioration of the low montane humid forest makes its ecological restoration a priority, due to this, mechanisms that tend to recover the forest are required, especially in priority areas. This study aimed to provide tools that allow restorers to have information about native species with potential for restoration. For this purpose, a 500-hectare low montane humid forest was selected, which was divided into three zones according to its anthropic intervention. In each area physicochemical analyzes of soils and floristic inventories were carried out analyzed with different indexes of diversity and vegetation profiles. In addition, tree and shrub species were classified as pioneer and persistent. Finally, fruits and seeds of the species that were fructified at the time of sampling were collected and analyzed, carrying out germination tests in each of them. The results suggest that in general the zones presented high diversity (Shannon index) with values between 2.804 and 3.414. Species with the highest IVI were Miconia resima, Palicourea angustifolia, Palicourea garciae, Cavendishia pubescens, and Clusia multiflora. The largest number of fruiting species was found in areas 1 and 2 (intervened and moderately intervened), 40% of the seeds extracted germinated, finally, 42 species were classified in the pioneer and persistent categories. In conclusion, the information obtained in this project is expected to serve in part as a support tool for the ecological restoration of the low montane humid forest. |

La alta fragmentación y deterioro de los bosques montano bajo hace prioritaria su restauración ecológica, debido a esto, se requieren mecanismos que propendan a la recuperación del bosque, sobre todo en áreas prioritarias. El presente estudio pretende aportar herramientas que permitan a los restauradores tener información sobre especies nativas con potencial para la restauración. Para el efecto, se seleccionó un bosque húmedo montano bajo de 500 ha, el cual, se dividió en tres zonas de acuerdo a su intervención antrópica. En cada zona se realizaron análisis físico-químicos de suelos e inventarios florísticos analizados con diferentes índices de diversidad y perfiles de vegetación. Además, se clasificaron las especies arbóreas y arbustivas en pioneras y persistentes. Finalmente, se colectaron y analizaron frutos y semillas de las especies que se encontraban fructificadas al momento del muestreo, realizando pruebas de germinación en cada uno de ellos. Los resultados sugieren que en general las zonas presentaron diversidad alta (índice Shannon) con valores entre 2.804 y 3.414. Las especies con mayor IVI fueron Miconia resima, Palicourea angustifolia, Palicourea garciae, Cavendishia pubescens, y Clusia multiflora. La mayor cantidad de especies fructificadas se encontró en las áreas 1 y 2 (intervenida y moderadamente intervenida), el 40% de las semillas extraídas germinaron, finalmente, se clasificaron 42 especies en las categorías de pioneras y persistentes. En conclusión, se espera que la información obtenida en el presente proyecto sirva en parte como herramienta de apoyo para la restauración ecológica del bosque húmedo montano bajo.
