Ecology of Monochaetum meridense and Monochaetum bonplandii in the cloud forest of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta.Abstract
En el bosque de niebla del San Lorenzo cerca de Santa Marta, a 2050 ms sobre nivel del mar, fueron medidas temperatura y humedad relativa durante 24 horas. En el mismo lapso se registraron los cambios de peso en las hojas de dos especies de Monochaetum (Melastomataceae), causados por la precipitación de rocío. Se analizó la anatomía de las hojas, y se le discute en relación con la estructura de su cutícula, de los factores ambientales y de las variaciones de peso. Se refiere a la formación de características epifíticas en Melastomatáceas de suelo, en relación con otras especies de Monochaetum presentes en la región de la Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta.In the cloud forest of San Lorenzo (2050m) near Santa Marta temperature and relative humidity were registrated for 24 hours. During this time variation of weight from leaves, caused by dew, was noted from two species of the genus Monochaetum (Melastomataceae). Anatomy of those leaves was analysed and discussed in relation to fine structure of cuticle, edaphic factors and differences of weight. Evolution of epiphytic characteristics on terrestrial Melastomataceae was analized in comparison to the other species of Monochaetum from Sierra Nevada.
