Abstract

PANDALES, Keiler Perea et al. Population density in Choco, Colombia, of two tree species of economic importance: Huberodendron patinoi (Malvaceae) and Hymenaea oblongifolia (Fabaceae). Cuadernos de Investigación UNED [online]. 2018, vol.10, n.1, pp.161-165. ISSN 1659-4266.  http://dx.doi.org/10.22458/urj.v10i1.2020.

The status of two economically important tree species, Huberodendron patinoi and Hymenaea oblongifolia, in Chocó, Colombia, was unknown. We used 50x50m plots to survey seedlings and trees. We found 19 adult H. oblongifolia; and 19 adults and 66 seedlings of H. patinoi (i.e. 4 Ind/ha and 33 Ind/ha, respectively). Management action is needed to increase the density of both species.
